One of my cows had twin heifers born about amonth ago. this was her third calving. The bigger of the two weighed 55 pounds and was filled out well like any other newborn. The other calf was a bony little 46 pounder. For two or three days I kept close check to make sure the three stayed together and the momma cow knew both calves were hers. To my delight, everything worked out well and the momma cow loves both calves equally. Both calves are gaining weight, although the smaller of the two is still a little bony. What I want to know is how often are twins born and whether the calves will be fertile females. I would like to hear the experiences of other members of this forum who have had twins.
