Assessor Comments
Traditionally highly sought after, Hill Springs have gained a reputation of breeding true to type Droughtmasters. Given the seasonal conditions here the heifer's have grown plenty of frame and with the opportunity, they will bound away. the vendor purchases quality sires each year and has a strict culling regime. ideally suited to future breeders or backgrounding onto heavier weights. the vendor would normally retain and sell in October but must make room for an early weaning this year. 2 delivery points are being offered by the vendor (buyers choice), delivery weight may vary between them due to distance and current heat we are experiencing in WA. 230-338kg @ assessment.
