[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 360812, member: 539"] Very few cattlemen or women 'love' twins - and that is fine, to each their own. We've always looked at them as a 'bonus', so to speak. I don't mind bottling a calf, it takes what - a half hour, tops? Hell, it takes longer to mix up the milk replacer and walk out to the pen than it does to bottle the calf. I sold my last bottle calf for $780.00. He weighed 725 lbs at roughly a year old, and brought 1.08/pound. If I had been a little more savvy about the auction world, I could have probably made more money off him - that is my fault. Would I do it again? Oh, yeah, in a heartbeat!!!!! Opportunity knocks everyday, it is up to us to recognize it. ;-) [/QUOTE]
