Animal twins
Twins are common in many animal species, such as cats, sheep, ferrets and deer. The incidence of twinning among cattle is about 1-4%, and research is under way to improve the odds of twinning, which can be more profitable for the breeder if complications can be sidestepped or managed. The nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus) has identical twins (usually four babies) as its regular reproduction and not as exceptional cases.

What are the chances of identical twins having twins themselves?
Women who are themselves fraternal twins have a 10% chance of producing twins, identical twin women have only a 0.6% probability of having a twin birth.
What is the probability of having twins if your husband is a twin?
Identical twins happen by chance only; 4 per 1000 births or 0.004 probability. Fraternal twin probability is increased only if it is on the mother's side; so this does you affect your circumstance (from what you have stated). The chance of fraternal twins is 1 in 60 or 0.017. So, your probability of identical twins is 0.004 and fraternal twins is 0.017 (BTW, I have triplets).

How is probability used in genetics?
probability is used in genetics to determine the possibilities of offspring having a certain trait
What is the meaning having probability of 1?
It is an absolute certainty.
I am a twin will i also have twins?
Having twins is based on probability. There is not a 100% chance you will have twins.
Are twin heifer calves born infertile?
No. Only a heifer calf twinned to a bull calf will be infertile, not twin heifer calves.
What are the chances of identical twins having twins themselves?
Women who are themselves fraternal twins have a 10% chance of producing twins, identical twin women have only a 0.6% probability of having a twin birth.
If the probability of getting identical is 0.004 while the probability of fraternal twins is 0.023 then what is the probability that a person chosen at random will not be a twin?
1- P(identical) - P(fraternal) =1-0.004-0.023 =0.973 The probability of being a identical or fraternal twin plus the probability of not being a twin has to add to 1. so 1- probability of being twins=probability of not being a twin ;-)
When twin female calves are born is one or both sterile?
Neither. Both calves will be fertile. You will only get a sterile female calf if she's born to a twin bull brother.
What is the probability of having twins if your husband is a twin?

If the probability of getting identical twins is 0.004 while the probability of fraternal twins is 0.023 then what is the probability that a person chosen will be a twin?
P(twin)=P(identical)+P(fraternal) P(twin)=0.004 +0.023 P(twin)=0.027 [That's 27 out of 1,000 cases, or 54 persons out of 1027.]
Can twin calves be delivered at an interval of 1 month?
It's rare, but possible, yes.
What is the record for a cow having the most calves in a lifetime?
The current record is 39 calves.
You have twin female calves can they reproduce?
Twin female calves should be able to reproduce in the future, given they are otherwise healthy, normal calves. The main problem is if you get twins of different genders sharing the same blood supply during gestation. These are termed freemartins and the female has been exposed to male hormones throughout gestation. Besides looking a little 'manly', or having some physical similarities to a bull, they are almost always infertile and farmers will not attempt to mate them for this reason.
How can you tell when someone having twin?
