[QUOTE="Buck Randall, post: 1628616, member: 38590"] Without getting too deep into the physiology of why it happens, cows are more likely to double ovulate when they aren't cycling normally. The first heat after calving or heats after prolonged nutritional or heat stress are more likely to be double ovulations. If a cow has a genetic predisposition to twinning, her daughters can inherit it without necessarily being twins themselves. [/QUOTE]
