That is quite possible, much to my shame I had a 16 month old heifer produce a pair of twins and she was homebred. BCMS took some convincing but it happened. We kept the heifer and she went on to make a fine cow amazingly! The wonder of nature.

Have had this one 'cast' by the vet.....either the calf isn't 10 mths old or she went to the bull at 2 mths old .!!!
Vendor has agreed to pay costs so all should be well.
