These steers were drafted out of a large mob in a big yard. They were easy to handle through the race and over the scales. Some steers would stir under pressure but settle as soon as the pressure was released.

Assessor Comments
buyers on offer from our vendor are an exceptional draft of “ROCKFORD” Hereford steers. These steers and purchased annually and grown out and fattened into heavy bullocks, How ever due to the sale of property they are up on offer with the most of the hard work done. These steers show tremendous length of body with frame and excellent breed characteristics. Steers that have been on a forward run over the winter and into the early spring, and given the same feed opportunity will only continue to grow out into heavy bullock weights. Drafted on frame this is the second of three lots our vendor has on offer.
