Subject: RE:USDA Meat Animal Research Center at


New Mexico
Clay Center, Nebraska, has developed a twinning herd.

http://www.marc.usda.gov/

The Cattle sale there is Feb 2nd thru the 4th. There will be 29 twinners on sale. High end of those has an 85% twin affect every calf crop with an 85% accuracy rating epd / UP for the twinning trait.

Whole deal is genetics first then a highly complimentary enviro too.
It takes the TRAIT to drop extra eggs.
Then it takes calories too, during ovulation.
