A world record event has repeated itself when a cow from the Pingluo County in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region of China, gave birth to four calves on Sunday.
“It is the first time I have seen so many calves born from a cow at one time,” said Guo Xuefeng, the cow’s owner, who is known as a skilled cow breeder in the county. Three of the newborn calves are female and they are all in good condition.
A cow from Nanjing, China, set the record having quadruplets in December of 2003 and was entered into the Guinness World Records.
Animal experts only give a 2% to 4% chance for a cow to have twins, so the percentage to have quadruplets is very small.

Thats pretty cool, veal anyone?
I like to talk about stool.
Wow 4 is a record
I wonder what the record is for humans
-.-
To the best of my knowledge there is no record for a human giving birth to cows…. still it is a crazy world…..
Ratty,
Someone should tie you in a little stall, feed you til you can’t stand and, well, you should know the rest…that is, unless you think veal comes from happy little calves who die in their sleep
The record for live human births is 7, the largest number of multiple births with at least one surviving child is 8. The largest number of babies in one pregnancy is 19
