Temperament not assessed in Paddock
Heifers were a pleasure to process through the yards at time of assessment. The heifers described as slightly stirry pnly became a little agitated in the race and head bail. The temperament of the cattle are a credit to the vendors stock handling and bull/replacement female selection.

Assessor Comments
These heifers are a credit to the vendors and like their brothers in the same sale show good length and depth. These heifers are being sold lighter than the vendors would normally sell because of the seasonal conditions. These heifers have been pregnancy tested empty apart from 3 heifers that were tested to be six weeks in calf and have been identified by being bang tailed. These heifers can be removed if the successful purchaser does not want them. The heifers were preganancy tested by Gavin Wemyss who is a reputable contract pregnancy scanner in the Blackall district.
