[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1131376, member: 9096"] We had about a set of twins a year for the last couple years except this year (22 cows in the herd).. about 8 years ago we had 3 sets, 1 set dead, the other set the mother died, and the 3rd, the mother only wanted one. The set last year only one was born alive (a pair of 110 lb bulls), the year before the mother only wanted one of them, and the year before that it was a heifer/bull set and the mother took and raised both to about 600 lbs. We had one cow have dead twins 3 times in row, but each time she saved her skin by adopting a needy calf... Wasn't going to have her stick around for a 4th try, and we didn't need her the next year either! [/QUOTE]
