Assessor Comments
Buyers presenting a 4 deck line of milk tooth PTE crossbred feeder heifers .majority of these heifers were purchased as calves on cows from Western Queensland in 2025 and have performed well since weaning earlier in the year and trucked to Buffell Park. Bred from predominantly large framed cows most show good bone and frame to go on and perform on grass or grain.Ideally suited to the Domestic feeder market as drafted into 320-400 kg weight range alternatively could go on to crop and take through to heavy feeder or slaughter weights , all hgp,antibiotic and grain free, up to date with 5in1 and Botulism injections ,please note two heifers had old blight scarring in one eye.Vendor has 2 decks heavier sisters this sale
