Assessor Comments
The first draft of heifers on offer from our vendor today. Heifers that show plenty of length of body with frame and type, they are cattle that have had the work put into them and are ready to stack the weight on given the feed opportunity coming into the spring. Pure bred speckle park out of the Roscrea program they show the potential to grow into classy trade type females.
