Buyers these steers were a pleasure to draft, handle and assess. They have had extensive education and handling at weaning by the vendors and their children. The odd steer slightly unsettled in the crush whilst being assessed which is understandable for a weaner. Please refer to my videos for how quiet they handled in the yards and also letting out of the yards. All the hard work has been done, ready to power ahead!

Assessor Comments
Buyers please consider this soft line of 72 EU & Teys Grasslands accredited weaned steers (2 decks). Weighing from 220 to 380 kgs to avg 294 kgs at assessment or approx 283 kgs at delivery. A quiet line of soft crossbred steers that have all the hard work done with an extensive weaning 6 weeks ago. The vendors keep their property clean of tick so will offer these steers guaranteed clean of tick at delivery and have also pre treated with Moxxi pour on to suit tick clearing guidelines. An attractive line of EU steers that will suit the feeder market or carry on and finish to Grasslands bullocks. I have full confidence these steers will go on and perform to their renowned reputation and highly recommend your interest. Buyers please refer to my photos and videos as part of my description.
