Assessor Comments
Very good draft of EU, Grassfed and Antibiotic free heifers that are very even in weight. Majority of heifers weighed 280-320Kg few exceptions either side. Heifers are in ideal condition for crop or feed. Heifers would be an asset to add to an existing herd to join. Plenty of breeding put into these heifers. Vendor has 12 heifers 6 Months older in same sale to make up neat B Double.
