Assessor Comments
A light 2 decks of Angus x Angus and Angus cross steers. Weighed 240-377kg at assessment to curfew 291kg. They have been grazing a mixed species fodder crop that they have got the best out of now. They appear to be holding on the feed but I doubt they would be going forward currently. As a result they have the stand up and are light on in fat cover and offer immediate weight gains with a change in diet. These steers were sourced from the north in autumn and have turned around with the change in feed. Breed content is an estimate and please refer video to make your own judgement in relation to likely crosses. Majority are angus and with the balance being an Angus cross. Ideal steers to top up on grass to a feeder weight or for a domestic kill.
