Fall calving season is in full swing and we just got a pretty exciting surprise…
Our first set of twins for the season — and they’re BOTH HEIFERS! 😍
Twin calves are relatively rare, occurring in less than 5% of cattle births. So when you walk out and find TWO healthy calves with one mama, it’s definitely a moment worth celebrating!
The tendency for a cow to release two eggs during breeding can be influenced by genetics, her overall health, and nutrition. That’s where good herd management comes into play.
Here at Grace’s Family Farm, we pay close attention to all three. We select our Angus genetics with the long term health and productivity of the herd in mind, keep our cows on a rotational grazing program, and make sure they have access to quality pasture and proper nutrition throughout the year.
Healthy cows + good genetics + good management = giving those calves the best start we can.
And this year, apparently, one of our girls decided two was better than one! 😂
We’re pretty excited to watch these two little heifers grow. 💚
