Subject: Best Decision for twins calves.


SC WI
Today one of my smaller cows had a set of twins, out on corn stalks. She is actively taking care of both. I have had plenty of twins in the past, most with great success, but with a wide variety of outcomes.

So the decision......

Should I let her keep both? (Hope she has enough milk, but also make sure the creep feeder stays full)

Or


Should I remove one calf; to sell, to bottle feed, or to hire custom raised?

Any input is appreciated.
