Callaway Livestock held their monthly Special Bred Cow, Heifer and Pairs sale Thursday evening with a large crowd on hand. The feature attraction was several consignments of top quality black bred heifers mostly in the 3rd stage with a few in the second selling with good demand. The balance of the rest of the sale were made up of mostly 3-6 year old bred cows in the 2nd and 3rd stage and 3-6 year old pairs with 200-350 lb calves all selling with moderate to good demand.
