Paddock
Temperament not assessed in Paddock
An exceptional mob to handle through the yards, walking away self controlled, calm through gates, minimal effort or push required to load the force, race or crush. The few that were a little fidgety when confined in the crush stepped out the front calm & quietly. Overall it is very evident the time and effort that the Vendors have invested into educating these cattle was on display in how content, quiet & easily managed through the yards the steers are. A very calm mob of steers.

Lightly shaded rolling Mitchell grass downs country supporting a good quality fresh & bulk of Mitchell grass and herbages amongst others. The seasonal conditions are very good & I would expect the steers to be gaining weight due to their quiet nature
