Temperament not assessed in Paddock
These steers were as expected to handle given they have been running in a large mob and from various origins. Very odd one stirred up on the scales but settled for videoing and with space. They moved freely through the yards responding correctly to pressure. These heifers have been routinely handled and weighed.

Assessor Comments
Offering 94 head Angus x Angus backgrounder steers as part of the annual trade program. 100% antibiotic free and grass fed only and weighed 270-395kg after a small lock up. These steers have performed well after arriving in autumn/winter as weaners and have maintained a continuous growth rate since. They are being returned to fresh pastures until delivery and they will continue to gain weight. Presenting even as a line these steers stand on a decent frame with no excess fat coverage and offering immediate weight gains with quality nutrition. They have been rotationally grazing improved irrigated pastures in a larger mob and will remain in their sale line until delivery. Ideal steers to background to heavier feeder weights or fatten for positive forward options and with some improvement in seasonal conditions a grass fed option is possible.
