These steers flowed through yards very well with no issues especially given the fact they are freshly weaned and had limited handling is testament to their great temperament.

1 Head Pink eye scarring in one eye
Assessor Comments
Buyers here’s a neat body load of well bred and handled steers read to grow out to feeders, of which the majority will suit the Angus premium markets. These steers flowed through the yard well with no issues and where a pleasure to handle. These steers are generally grown out to domestic and export feeder weights by the vendor, so they’ll certainly do the job for you. There is one steer with a active case of ‘Pink eye’ in this mob however he has been treated and vendor can see a improvement in it, it will leave the eye with standard scarring I expect. Located 26km SW of Dalby on the Moonie hwy these steers are centrally situated to match up with trucks going west if required. I recommend this line of Angus & Angus cross Backgrounder steers.
