heifers born twin to a bull are almost always sterile (freemartin). one figure i have seen is 90% are sterile. i've had a dairy for 24 years, and am still waiting for my 10% breeders to arrive. i will say that my dad's herd had a couple of sets of twins that had good females, so i know they do exist.
as to the calves fooling around, i've had similar behavior from 6 mos old calves, but not 3 mos old.
