[QUOTE="brimmer X, post: 1232250, member: 7228"] One of my best cows had twins Saturday. This was the 6th set of twins on our place in 8years, but this was the first case I witnessed being born. Nerve Racking. This was the first case the mother would not accept one. I thought we had it made after the second one was born and the first began to nurse, but Sunday should would have nothing to do with the first one. It is partially my fault, I turned 9 yearling + heifers out while she was in the calving process. They got all in the way and first calf was following one of them around. Sold the calf Monday morning for $420 at the sale barn. Both calves were bulls, but one was white, the other gogled red white face. The cow was F1 British white and Brahman, bred to a Hereford bull. Had I not seen it, I would not have believed they were twins. [/QUOTE]
