Assessor Comments
Approx. 120 (3 decks) of GQ AngusX & Droughtmaster heifers. At assessment these heifers weighed 137 – 321kg to avg 216kg after being mustered and walked 5km to the yards. The heifers are out of medium framed AngusX, Droughtmaster & BrahmanX cows and are sired by GQ Angus & Droughtmaster bulls. 10 head were mouthed and all presented milk teeth. The breed breakdown in this mob is approximately 55% AngusX and 45% Droughtmaster/DroughtmasterX. They have been pre treated for tick with Baymac or Toromac LV Pour-on. Heifers have plenty of compensatory gain and will go ahead on good feed. This line of heifers would be an asset to any herd for future breeding or background for the domestic feeder market. Please note there is 1 other lot (120 head) in this auction.
