Assessor Comments
Great opportunity to purchase a deck of light cross bred steers that are absolutely ideal to re paddock. These steers are extremely well educated with plenty of frame to move. (Located in a tick free zone) steers have been injected with a Bomectin at assessment to eliminate any internal and external parasites. Cattle present in good store condition. Excellent weight gains would be achieved on these cattle given the right conditions. Buyers please note bigger brothers are also offered in this weeks sale
