Those may be siblings via an embryo transplant program but I find it very hard to believe a single cow carried 5 calves to term in one pregnancy.

Here is the french translation to the captions:

a cow gave birth to quintuplets, every living beings, every males.

In this kind the twins are not rare, triplets are very rare and often not viable; the even less frequent quadruplets. To Empurany as the photograph prove it, we have living quintuplets! …

This cow had accepted no treatment of fecundity and was honoured by the bull of the farm. They can accuse therefore neither the veterinary surgeon nor the inséminateur of having forced on doses! it has already given birth three times to twins.

Let us thank it simply for contributing in one's own way to the conflict against the desertification of campaigns! …
