Assessor Comments
Offering the entire drop of Angus sired Angus/Limo cross weaner steers. A very small number could be straight Angus, but most have some Black Polled Limo infusion. They are on the do and are very fresh. They are well weaned with all recent husbandry requirements up to date. One steer was treated for a light touch of pick eye at assessment and should fully recover. Another steer, identified with a green ear tag, had a course of antibiotics for a foot infection 4 months ago. Berthong Station have been in cris/cross program with Limousin and Angus bulls for decades. Purchases in recent years are of Black Poll Limo and Angus bulls from Mandayen Stud in South Australia. This follows many years of Renny Lea and Hazeldean angus bulls which have created a great base from the original shorthorn based herd of decades ago. No burrs noted at assessment, but the creek in which they are grazing does have the odd plant. These young calves will keep powering ahead. 1st 3 photos mixed mobs in paddock!
