Assessor Comments
On offer is 17 quality Shorthorn Heifers. 11-12 months old and represent the complete drop. Heifers have good bone and shape to be able to pack on the weight if given the opportunity. They have been in containment feeding since weaning due to seasonal conditions which has meant they have kept going forward without getting a setback. Ideal steers to take on and put on crop or feedlot to finish for the trade or keep on as breeders for the future. At assessment Heifers had a weight range on 287-417kg to avg 350kg. Quality Heifers you can buy with confidence.
