Assessor Comments
A good quality line of Angus and Brangus type steers that have had all the hard work done. Purchased predominately out of Southern QLD and Northern NSW as weaners from April to June 2023. These steers have performed well through our winter/spring period on dry pasture and are really starting to fire ahead now on better pasture quality. 100% Black, Flatback steers with a large percentage of Angus X Angus types, small number of Baldy and Broken Baldy steers through the mix as well as Angus X Brangus steers showing a percentage of Bos indicus content with cleaner coats and some leg under them. Approx 5hd showing scarring on their eye but still have clear sight and has not affected performance. Steers are medium framed with good bone and tidy heads, temperament is very good and they are well educated and worked through the yards and paddock easily. small percentage became agitated in the head bale during mouthing however nothing considered stirry or aggressive.
