Temperament not assessed in Paddock
Steers were a pleasure to draft and assess. Walked through the race and stood on the scales with a minimum of fuss. Exited the crush in a calm, steady fashion. Walked quietly back to their paddock once let out of the yards. No hesitation in recommending the temperament

Assessor Comments
Small line of 15 Yearling Steers from the Darlow family. Black coated Composite Steers that offer the best of both worlds with the Hybrid Vigour of the Hicks Beef Composite blood to give them that extra punch wrapped up in the black hide. Vendor also has another 12 weaner steers averaging 293kg in this same sale. Steers are grass fed and antibiotic free and vendor can provide a PCAS Non-Certified Supplier Declaration on request.
