As filed

Callaway Livestock held their monthly Special Bred Cow/Heifer and Pairs sale Thursday evening with a large crowd on hand. Overall the bulk of the consignments were a nice offering of young bred cows mostly 3-5 years of age and bred heifers all selling with good demand mostly in the 2nd and 3rd stage along with several short solid and aged cows in the mix. There was a large offering of slaughter cows and breeding bulls that sold.
