Assessor Comments
A 2 deck line of 74 PCAS eligible VGQ Angus X backgrounder steers that present in store condition. These steers are best described as large to medium frame and have plenty of ability to grow into heavy feeders or grassfed bullocks. Buyers please note the big lock up these steers had prior to weighing so would expect buyer to see good compensatory gains once on crop or fresh feed. The vendor presents a very good soft even line of steers that show good bone, length & frame with an extremely quiet nature. Buyers please note that there are 2 x family brands.
