4 is amazing....4 alive is even more amazing. I hope they can keep them alive.

Good story

I'm a little removed from the reality of cattle prices but 8 calves from one cow in three years....wow.

4 calves at what, $1500 each...a cool six grand.

8 is $12,000. Too funny.

This cow probably earned the right to die of old age on the farm.

I gave the ole lady that rite after 3 ... J/k

They bought a dairy cow to raise 2 and mother is raising 2. Rudledge will probably make sure they sell well and hope for the publicity.

Belly laughing. .... I.hope she doesn't read Agriville. Too funny.

Better watch the attitude, bulls get replaced more frequently than cows.

Radio Roy is something else, sell those calves early and sell them often. Did any of you see him do a charity auction with his buddy when they went by Jake and the Fat Man? Good clean humour.

Had a set of triplets this winter, except mine wasn't a happy ending. Cow got sick, treated for a couple weeks, got worse, went down, aborted triplets Late 2nd trimester. 3 fetuses for sure, I didn't sort through the debris, but there was another lump that looked like fetus size. Vet put her down, and I assumed he would look at the aborted fetuses, but didn't, so now I'll never know.

Would those calves, carry in their genetics, a consistence for delivering multiple births, or rather successful multiple births?

Or is it just magic between the cow and bull, that wouldn't likely be passed down to the calves?

A little surprised the rancher would part with them.

Quite a few 1.5 calves in the Weyburn museum.
