Assessor Comments
Quality backgrounder or bullock Fattening line of EU accredited, Vendor bred steers. Displaying good muscling, mostly strong bone & are thick, fleshy steers. Currently in store condition, displaying plenty of compensatory growth potential on productive pasture. Would expect majority of these steers to grade MSA. Colours include 65% red, 25% honey, 10% grey. 1 steer noted with water bag scrotum. All within a 55kg grouping. Bottom weight 210 kg and top weight 265 kg. Branded number 1. Whilst this is an impressive line of majority red & honey steers there is a small tail end in quality, with lighter bone displaying some minor confirmation faults however, still describe as fair quality for this small portion. Medium/ large frames with plenty of capacity to grow into heavy carcase steers. Buyer pays dip for first attempt, vendor covers thereafter if required. Steers are good temperament. This is a quality line of steers to background on pasture!
