Docile heifers, so quiet they need pushing in the yards. Don't get better temperament than these.

Assessor Comments
Front paddock Red Angus heifers. If red is your thing you're not going to find better. Joined to stud Angus bull 25/4/25 to 30/6/25. These heifers have the best temperament I've seen. They are in magnificent condition as seen in the photos and video. This line of heifers comes with my highest recommendation. Inspections welcomed.
