Assessor Comments
Offering a well bred, nicely presented draft of vendor bred Angus steers. Steers are principally Weeran blood and have had a 5-in-1 vaccine. They present in fresh store to forward store condition and are displaying good frame and weight for age despite coming through a tough season. They are grassfed eligible, suitable for any market. A chance to acquire nicely presented Angus steers to background to heavy feeder weights or finish into trade or export markets.
