Paddock
Temperament not assessed in Paddock
The heifers are well handled and easy to move without excessive bunching or anxiety in a relatively small yard. They block up well and require normal steadying through gates, the pound & race. The majority were very calm stepping off the scales with only a handful eager to exit quicker. Calm & inquisitive, free moving when walking through the yard for photos showing normal flight zone. The Mt Cornish cows are quiet & well handled.

Assessor Comments
Good quality Santa & Santa cross backgrounding or breeder replacement heifers from a large frame herd of quality Santa & Santa x cows. The Mt Cornish herd are noted performing cattle having infused top quality Santa genetics over large frame quality Shorthorn cows over many years targeting the feeder and weaner market. 15 colored heifers - roans, creamy or brindle, 2 white heifers, 1 black & 6 white underline or markings. With the frame they currently have you could be forgiven for expecting them to weigh an additional 25/30kg. You will be purchasing frame to add compensatory weight to.
