Assessor Comments
An opportunity to purchase a well bred line of breeders steers. These steers are ideal to purchase, all grown out and all frame with a small amount of fat cover. Note the tight weight range on these steers. They will put on weight very quickly given good feed. Normally sold direct to the feedlot, however the season has cut out and presents an excellent opportunity to trade these steers. Steers have had 2 x 7 in 1 in total. Buyers note also had 2 shots of Bovilis MH+IBR. Note other 58 steers same weight range this sale same vendor at nearby property. A total of 141 steers to put together.
