It doesn't work that way. A heifer calf is only infertile if she is twinned with a bull calf and if her and that bull calf share the same placental tissues. In most cases such twins are fraternal, but simply stating that fraternal twins versus maternal twins are more prone to infertility than the other is stating falsehoods.
Twin heifer calves being infertile is not a common occurrence. If they are healthy and growing normally, there should be no issues with their fertility. However, it's always best to consult with a veterinarian for a more accurate assessment.
Not all twin bull calves will be infertile. However, some may have reduced fertility due to developmental issues or abnormalities associated with being a twin. It's important to consult with a veterinarian for a proper assessment and guidance.
Maurice was the fraternal twin of Robin. Maurice died in 2003.
Gemelo/a (Identical twin) Mellizo/a (fraternal twin)
i say that identical twins are the least rare because like me a fraternal twin i only know 1 pair of fraternal twin.
Yes, I'm afraid so, anyone can be infertile.
Yes.
boys and about 79%
Twin female calves should be able to reproduce in the future, given they are otherwise healthy, normal calves. The main problem is if you get twins of different genders sharing the same blood supply during gestation. These are termed freemartins and the female has been exposed to male hormones throughout gestation. Besides looking a little 'manly', or having some physical similarities to a bull, they are almost always infertile and farmers will not attempt to mate them for this reason.
Fraternal twins.
No, being a fraternal twin does not increase the likelihood of giving birth to fraternal twins. The chances of having fraternal twins are determined by the mother's genetics and are not influenced by being a twin herself.
that means they are not identical twins they are fraternal they each got different genes
