These weaners have been handled properly with the right fundamentals using low stress stock handling. They have been tailed daily and also run through the yards daily. You can definitely see that in the yards that they have been handled very well. Very easy to walk around and have been educated to the best off their ability. Would advise the purchaser to allow sufficient time for these to settle on arrival before they are shown the "bush gate".

Assessor Comments
Buyers, a line of good to very good quality Crossbred weaner steers that are available. They show good growth and weight for age considering they are only 5-10 months old. They stand on good bone, especially the Euro cross steers with plenty of muscling. These are suitable for restockers to background up to heavier export feedlot entry weights. There looks to be a fair amount that appear to be Droughtmasters but there are no Droughtmaster bulls on the property. Must be by Santa bulls out of high grade Droughtmaster cows. Have been very well weaned and are super quiet to handle so and I think they would hit the ground running if they are exposed to fresh improved pastures on heavier black soil country. They have presented in excellent health and don’t look to have suffered any setbacks at any stage of their life to date. These were weighed after a 16-hour dry curfew. These would fit on 3.5 decks however there is an additional line of 45 steers that can be used to fill a 4.5 deck unit.
