[QUOTE="Fire Sweep Ranch, post: 1490213, member: 18809"] She is the reason, not a bull. Fraternal twins (opposite sex proves that in this case) are caused by TWO eggs being fertilized. So, she is releasing two eggs in her heat. How often is she calving? Every 12 months? If she can raise them, I say go for it! You put very little money into the grain versus the check for the extra calf you are selling, so I would take it! It is VERY unlikely that they twin that often. We have a cow that has had twins three years in a row.... and had a single this fall. [/QUOTE]
