Paddock
Temperament not assessed in Paddock
Heifers were pretty quick in most areas of the yards. They do tend to gallop about when spooked in the bigger yards but nothing that could be considered aggressive. Like all cattle they need to be steadied through gateways etc. These heifers don't look to have had the handling that these cattle get in most years. Most heifers resented being pregnancy tested and this not abnormal.

Assessor Comments
Buyers a 4 deck line of PCAS ELIGIBLE heifers best described as Composites (mainly the Angus and Brangus types) bred out of crossbred cows. These would suit for feedlot entry or could be taken to heavier weights off crop or improved pastures to MSA domestic slaughter heifers. Highly suitable for restockers looking to rebuild breeder numbers and are ready to mate to the bulls of your choice. There were 8 in the line that were injected with a PG vaccine as it was thought they were in the early stages of pregnancy. Most are flatback types with only 3-4 with a bit higher Bos Indicus content with a bit more ear and slight crest visible in photos. Noted 5 heifers with buffalo fly rub. Also, about 5 with some brindle colouring in the coat. All guaranteed for clean country entry and will scratch clean on farm. These respond well to horses, bikes and dogs. There is also a lighter 2 deck black line in this sale that could go with them.
