Becky (13) gives parents night off to deliver twin calves
And then the aspiring young farmer showed her agricultural mettle by delivering twin calves during Saturday night. She had been watching the cow which was expected to deliver twins by camera during the evening and when she went to the byre to check again around midnight she noticed the cow was getting a little agitated, a sure sign of imminent arrivals. "I went back up to the house and put on my gear and had a cup of tea, all the time keeping an eye on the camera," Becky recalled this week. "Then around ten to two she popped out the blister, which means the calves are coming."
