These steers were a pleasure to handle in the yards & through the crush. Flowing well through the race up onto the scales with very little fuss. The stirry & slightly stirry steers in the crush were from being asked to stand in the crush for too long. Once out in the yards they calmed down very quickly lovely to walk though when taking photos & videos.
