When twin female calves are born is one or both sterile?

Neither. Both calves will be fertile. You will only get a sterile female calf if she's born to a twin bull brother.


Why can't twin calves reproduce?

They can, especially if you are referring to twins that are both male or both female. The problems arise if you have brother and sister twins. Ninety percent of the time the female will be a freemartin or hermaphrodite because of the influence of the testosterone produced by her brother who was sharing the same placenta as her. The bull calf though, is 100% fertile unless you castrate him.


When twin male calf are born is one or both sterile?

Fertility or sterility is not determined by birth circumstances. That is, just because an animal is born a twin, doesn't mean it will be sterile, or fertile. Being a twin has nothing to do with it.Another opinion:When twin bull calves are born neither are sterile, they're both fertile. The issue comes when the twin bull is born with a twin heifer, where there's a chance that she may be a freemartin and have a 90% chance of being sterile.
