Assessor Comments
38 good quality feeder heifers. A great opportunity to purchase a mob of heifers and benefit from the hybrid vigour and some extra yield from the euro cross influence. The Carrigan family have been very successful in the past for breeding award winning cattle, entered in the Merriwa show feedlot competition. Ideal cattle to put straight on the grain bin but also have the ability to finish on grass.
