[QUOTE="Silver, post: 1495062, member: 12520"] I agree with you on the gestation of twins, we often get several sets early in the season. I don't believe we will maintain anything near our current 25 percent pace. There have been many attempts by folks a lot more clever than myself to influence twinning in herds and only very limited success. Just like I don't like to believe that we will continue to have heifers at a rate of 2:1 to bulls. [b]More random chance[/b] 220 lbs is a lot of calf in one cow for sure. The last set of twins I pulled were big but not quite there for sure. If you'd like a calf for that wet cow stop in and we'll have a drink and come up with something that works for both of us :D [/QUOTE]
