The exceptional temperament on these steers is a credit to the vendors and their management program. steers walked comfortably and quietly through the yards with no hassle or fuss. 4 steers became slightly agitated when confined in the weigh box however settled easily when released and exited the crush at a walk. buyers would be hard pressed to find another line of steers with this level of education.
