[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 14044"] About an hour ago I had a heifer that I recently purchased (E6 beefmaster) give birth to twins! I haven't been around that many calving seasons, but is this common? Is it more common in this breed than others (the rest of my commercial herd is black angus/brangus/gelbveigh influenced. The pair seems to be very healthy. I watched them get up on their own and both of them nursed without a problem. They are really small, but otherwise seemed OK. Is there anything I need to be watching for (both with the calves and the mom)? The momma seems to be doing just fine with them and is letting them nurse without a problem. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks, Jeff [email=jeffkpierce@cattletoday.com]jeffkpierce@cattletoday.com[/email] [/QUOTE]
