1 Head Pink eye scarring in one eye
Assessor Comments
These heifers flowed through the pound & race very well, a couple stirred up in the vet crush however given they are fresh off their mothers it’s tolerable behaviour at this stage. These heifers are well grown and show plenty of frame and good bone. There is a heifer with minor scarring in one eye, other than that no imperfections noted. These heifers would normally be kept and grown out to replacements, however available grass/ room doesn’t allow it this time. I highly recommend these heifers.
