Steers flowed well at assessment through race draft & then came back around for weighing. Steers were very well behaved in both facets with only the odd steer stirring up when forced in smaller yards. The vendor moves cattle around the yards using low stress stock handling techniques.

Assessor Comments
Buyers a very even line of 126 USDA/NOP Organic certified & never ever certified Angus backgrounding steers that are showing great weight for age and reaping the rewards of a great season. Steers present as good medium to large frame for age & weigh from 330 to 430kg at assessment with a full curfew. This line of angus steers were 100% weighed at assessment with a 40 of the heaver weighted steers mouthed with only 1 x 2 tooths found the balance all milk teeth. At assessment 7 x head seen with slight blue eye, 1 x head with some ring worm around head but very minimal & 7 x head with a splash of white on under belly behind pizzle. Buyers this a great run of Angus steers that will perform very well on crop, grass or grain.
