Assessor Comments
A line of predominately Angus steers with the balance being Angus x. The steers will suit a backgrounder to take through to trade or heavy feeder markets, they could also be grown out for an export grass program. Of the steers handled there was 2 head over 300Kg after curfew. There was1 steer showing slight male characteristics however definitely not a bull. These characteristics are likely to dissipate as he matures. The vendor has 50 heifers same sale.
