On Monday I found that a red simmy cross cow that I have had aborted a set of twins. She was bred by my herd bull which is a maine out of WMW. They were both about 55lbs and didn't seem to have troulbe calving.
Then last night I checked the cows and my black simmy cross cow was off on her own. I have been watching her extra close because she was due on April 12th and was bred to Golden Child. I was concerned because she was 10 days early.
I checked her again late last night and early this morning. About 8 this morning 1 leg and head were out and it was dead. So I got the puller thinking that there was only one large calf, but when I pulled the 1st calf a leg came out from the 2nd calf. so then I pulled the next. Both were heifers and weighed about 60 lbs each.
I was sick, but what can you do?
Now I am wondering what the odds are that I would have two sets of twins die in one week?
Me and my dad were talking this afternoon and came up with the idea that maybe they got into some mistletoe which caused them to abort.
What do yall think?
Wierd huh?
