It is possible, but extremely rare.

Fraternal twins (commonly known as "non-identical twins") usually occur when two fertilized eggs are implanted in the uterine wall at the same time. The two eggs form two zygotes, and these twins are therefore also known as dizygotic as well as "biovular" twins. When two eggs are independently fertilized by two different sperm cells, fraternal twins result.

Among fraternal twins, in rare cases, the eggs are fertilised at different times with two or more acts of sexual intercourse, either within one menstrual cycle (superfecundation) or, even more rarely, later on in the pregnancy (superfetation). This can lead to the possibility of a woman carrying fraternal twins with different fathers (that is, half-siblings). One 1992 study estimates that the frequency of heteropaternal superfecundation among dizygotic twins whose parents were involved in paternity suits was approximately 2.4%.

alright to procure the terminology incorrect. PATERNAL ability father, which includes your PATERNAL grandmother is the mother of your father and a PATERNITY try is a DNA attempt to ascertain if someone is the daddy of a toddler. FRATERNAL twins may have diverse fathers. they are produced from diverse sperm assembly diverse eggs, for this reason those diverse sperm will be from diverse adult men if the mother had sex with 2 or better adult men around the time she were given pregnant. it will be no diverse than a lady having 2 little ones from 2 diverse fathers numerous years aside, they merely ensue to augment at the same time somewhat of separate cases.

Technically yes , its called milkman effect , if the 2 acts of copulation happen in short duration then the same egg can be fertilized by 2 different sperms from 2 different persons.

i saw an article in the local newspaper about that and they said yes, but rare.

the female had intercourse with two guys within days of each other and she had two separate fertile eggs and both guys got her pregnant. one was a white guy and one was a black guy and you could see it in the babies also. they had the DNA of their individual fathers.

not possible as the ovary stops producing eggs as soon as the egg is fertilised.
