Temperament not assessed in Paddock
These steers were easy to move around the yards but do tend to have a bit of trot in them in the bigger yards. In the race and crush they basically stood up well whilst being weighed. Initially when being videoed they wanted to rush a bit but settled pretty well once they realized there was nothing sinister about to happen to them. Recommend buyer take some time to settle these on arrival.

Assessor Comments
Buyers, check out this light B-Double of good quality PCAS ELIGIBLE yearling steers that have presented in mainly store condition. These have had a big sweat prior to be weighed in very warm weather so I would expect some healthy compensatory gains. These have only recently started to hit their straps now the season has turned and the feed is going through them a bit. They actually weighed lighter than they looked which would support my assumption of compensatory gain. These will suit to take through to heavy export feeders next year off grass or crop. They are GUARANTEED CLEAR OF TICKS and will scratch clean on farm on Saturday 13th December and are free to go to any tick free or interstate destination. If they are going to a tick free area, please ensure you have notification they are clear before you send the truck. Please be aware there is also a lot of heifers from this property in the sale as well.
