Subject: RE: Cow with twins


North Mo.
Might consider just selling one, labor,don't know what they are bringing at the barns. Like others said you might need a spare, but I feel you will need to feed some more energy to her, just to keep her at BCS5 at this time of year. Also with twins out on a pasture might watch close one calf can get left behind. We have had cows especially young cows that are quite happy with one calf, and the heck with the other one. .My son had a cow 2 years ago that had twins on our low rent program weighed apx. 400# when weaned off and she was re bred. I call her wonder cow. In her defense she is very aggressive when it comes to any type of feed, moving on strips, hay bales or a feed bucket. I would call her to large of a cow frame wise, but you can't argue with her production record.
