4 calves in 1 go

CLKD:
A dairy cow giving birth to extremely rare quadruplet calves has been described as "unheard of" by farm staff.

The bull and three heifers arrived fit and healthy at Calcourt Farms in Wernllwyd, Powys.

The chance of a quadruplet pregnancy in cattle is said to be, external one in 700,000, with the chance of them all being born alive just one in 11 million.

"This is a once in a career, probably lifetime, experience," said Matthew Hicks, the farm’s fertility manager.
