Barraba-district's Bowen Poll Hereford and Angus stud's Stephen Peake said the number of visitors was pleasing, and "it's only early in the day".
Tycolah Poll Hereford's Steve Crowley said numbers of visitors were starting to increase around the middle of the day. However, he thought that the stud's entire sale catalogue was now online, and some prospective buyers would only make one trip - sale day - to make their choices.
Tomorrow will have three studs showcasing their breeding programs. It will include; Country Style Simmentals, Eumungerie; Daarabah and Wirrabilla Fleckviehs, Merrygoen.
