A good quality line of Charolais type heifers that have had all the hard work done. Heifers are medium framed (68%) with good bone, sound with tidy heads. Selling NSM. 50% cream, 20% grey, 13% honey, balance red, brindle or tan in colour. Purchased predominately out of Southern QLD and Northern NSW as weaners from April to June 2023. These heifers have performed well through our winter/spring period on dry pasture and are really starting to fire ahead now on better pasture quality. Flatback heifers with a large percentage of Charolais types, small number showing a percentage of X bred content. Please see media to satisfy type.
