Assessor Comments
A NICE LINE OF NON STATION MATED BACKGROUNDER HEIFERS THAT HAVE JUST CLEANED UP IN THE COAT AND ARE STARTING TO PERFORM ON FRESH FEED. A GOOD OPPORTUNITY TO SECURE A LINE OF FEMALES TO JOIN OR CARRY THROUGH INTO HEAVIER FEEDER OR KILL WEIGHTS THAT ARE ALL UP TO DATE WITH THEIR HEALTH TREATMENTS.
