[QUOTE="CalumetFarms, post: 1720640, member: 36925"] That's really interesting, I almost would have guessed the opposite, in times of surplus the dams body would allow an additional egg. I did end up reuniting the twin to mamma and her sister yesterday morning, brought them to her pen. She will lick and protect both, and interestingly she will nurse either one in the absence of the other. But together there's a clear favorite, she kicks the one when her sister is within sight. Can't leave them together unattended for her sake. She'll just be a bottle calf, or better yet a free agent in case any loose a calf [/QUOTE]
