They are also called Free Martins, these are female calves that were born a twin to a bull calf. These females only have a 5% chance of ever being able to breed again, this happens because the Y chromosome of the bull calf mixes with the female so she is XXY, she then does not have a full functioning reproductive organ. Most farmers will sell her for veal.
