Heifers were pretty quick in most areas of the yards. They do tend to gallop about when spooked in the bigger yards but nothing that could be considered aggressive. Like all cattle they need to be steadied through gateways etc. These heifers don't look to have had the handling that these cattle get in most years. Most heifers resented being pregnancy tested and needled and this not abnormal.

Assessor Comments
Buyers a light 3 deck line of PCAS ELIGIBLE feeder heifers best described as Composites, bred out of crossbred cows. These would suit a feedlotter doing both trade or domestic markets as well as paddocking them and getting to heavier weights off crop or improved pastures to MSA domestic slaughter heifers. There were 6 heifers in the line that were injected with a PG vaccine as it was thought they were in the early stages of pregnancy. Most are flatback types with only about 12 with a bit higher Bos Indicus content with a bit more ear and slight crest visible in photos. 2 heifers with slight horn, nothing sharp and 3 heifers with white faces. There are 18 age branded No2's in the lot with 10 of them being mouthed as milk tooth. All guaranteed for clean country entry and will scratch clean on farm. These respond well to horses, bikes and dogs.
