Assessor Comments
136 Very Good Quality Droughtmaster heifers. These heifers have been bred out of medium and large framed Droughtmaster & DroughtmasterX cows and are sired by top quality Droughtmaster bulls. The vendor has been using Glenlands, Eversleigh & Crown M Droughtmaster Bulls for many years. These heifers are backed by proven genetics that have consistently yielded strong results across a range of high-grade markets. They have the potential to continue performing well into the future. At assessment the heifers weighed 300 – 370kg to average 324kg after being yarded that morning.
