Assessor Comments
A very tidy line of young (4yrs) Droughtmaster cows with an even line of quality calves at foot. Calves are by Medway Droughtmaster bulls with the exception of 4 calves being sired by Angus bulls. Cows have been running back with 3 Clunie Range Angus bulls since 8-12-25. These units are only on offer due to expiration of agistment and have been performing very well for the vendor. Given the favourable seasonal conditions since January, one would expect healthy conception rates. Cows display good udders and tidy heads. Cows are assessed as 24% large frame, 62% medium and 14% small frame. A great opportunity to secure a quality line of young functional breeders.
