Well she shouldn't!! If she has started puberty at that age (which is quite rare), she can get bred, but it his highly not recommended because of her small size, and the fact that she still has a lot of growing to do in order to be able to conceive and give birth to a healthy vibrant calf. Heifers should ONLY be bred at no earlier than 15 months of age!

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 old is a 600 pound calf?
Depends on the breed and body condition of the calf. A 600 lb Jersey calf can be around 7 to 8 months old, whereas a 600 lb miniature calf may not be a calf at all, but a 15 month old heifer or bull. A soggy Angus calf at 600 lbs may be at around 5 to 6 months of age.
How old can a heifer be when she reaches puberty or experiences her first heat cycle?
This depends on the breeding of that heifer. Some heifers that are genetically early maturing or have high fertility will start to experience puberty at around 5 to 6 months of age. Others that are more later maturing or have low fertility won't come into her first heat until she's 18 to 20 months of age. No matter when a heifer goes into puberty, she can only be bred after she's had 3 or 4 normal heat cycles, when her weight is at least 60% to 65% of the weight of the mature cow herd or of the average mature cow weight of similar breeding to her, or when she is 15 months of age or older.

What is the age limit of a bovine Heifer?
Most heifers should be around 15 to 18 months of age to be receptive and be able to get bred. Of course this depends on the breed and the type of cattle. For dairy cattle, a farmer aims to have a heifer calve by 24 months, or two years of age. The gestation period for a cow is approximately the same as for humans - nine months. Hence, a farmer usually aims to inseminate a heifer at 15 months of age, but this also depends on the health and condition of the animal and whether is is physically fit to become pregnant. For beef cattle, a heifer generally should be inseminated at around the same age. However, some breeds are quite late maturing, and will only be able to get bred at 18 to 22 months of age. Brahmans (or Zebu-type cattle) are late maturing, enough that only sees heifers getting bred or inseminated at this age.

Can twin calfs become pregnant when old enough?
Only if both are female and are actually old enough to be able to get bred, which would be beyond the stage they are considered "calves" and at around 15 months of age. A heifer twinned to a bull calf may have only a 5 to 10% chance of getting bred because of the risks of her being sterile are quite high due to the presence of and her exposure to testosterone from her twin brother. This is particularly so if they share a placenta.
