Can you breed a heifer if she was twin to a bull?
There's a 5 to 10% chance that you can. The rest of the time she'll be a freemartin and too sterile to be deemed usable to breed. She'd be better off being raised for the freezer than for a momma. You should get the heifer tested for freemartinism before you attempt to get her bred. Your large animal veterinarian will either do it for you or give you tips on how it can be done.
How much is a heifer?
Depends on where you are located, the time of year, the breed of the heifer and whether she's a commercial one or a purebred heifer. It also depends on her age (3 to 4 month old heifer or a yearling), or whether she is a replacement female depicted as open or bred. Prices also depend on whether you are buying via private treaty or through the salebarn. So with that I cannot give you an exact amount that a heifer would cost you.
