Temperament not assessed in Paddock
Heifers considering they have only just been weaned were actually very good to handle in all areas of the yards. In the bigger yards there were some ring leaders that still have a small amount of trot in them which is quite normal and makes the balance follow the leader a bit.

Assessor Comments
Buyers a light single deck line of PCAS ELIGIBLE Composite weaner heifers that are mainly flat back types and should be ideal to suit to background for domestic feeder entry weight specifications. There were about 2 in the lot that do have a small amount of hump visible in the video. These have only been off the cows for anywhere from 3-10 days and have already settled down very well temperament wise. I would suggest most of these have been self-weaned by their mothers with the dry weather kicking in. As a result, there is no sign of any milk in them so I feel there could be some compensatory gain provided they go onto some improved pastures. There were about 3 head that show the signs of early weaning as they are a little bit dried out but not woody. All up at the property there are 273 weaners being offered in the sale. Pre-treated for ticks.
