Assessor Comments
A nice b-double line of vendor bred Angus and Brangus Heifers, that have been weaned and just started on green feed; however ongoing wet conditions on the Northern Rivers have brought these heifers to the market. All the hard work has been done here and heifers should perform very well given the opportunity. Buyers please note that two heifers were noted to have blue eyes but are not considered detrimental.
