Assessor Comments
Buyers 4 Decks of PCAS eligible lightweight Droughtmaster & Ultrablack X weaner steers that present in fresh store to forward store condition & are best described as being medium to large frame. Steers have been weaned over the last week being fed hay in yards and tailed out with bikes, dogs & horses. Steers show plenty of bone, length & frame ready to grow out to heavier weights as heavy feeders or grass fed bullocks. At assessment 3 x head were seen to have a small number of warts around head but not presenting any issues as they are tiny. Steers that have been bred in the mulga country and are ready to bounce away on fresh pasture. Buyers please note as vendor has some commitments to get to next week delivery as early as possible.
