Recipient Included / Heifer sells WITH Recipient 1. What’s in a name? Vega – the brightest star in the constellation Lyra, or Vega, the brightest star of Fire Sky’s 2024 crop of heifers? 2. Where’s she from? Vega is my dream come true – the exciting combination of our majestic 52’4/8” Kyasha with the phenomenal potential of the young giant Zeus (R19-04). Kyasha is the top specimen of the BA1 and A21 combination and Zeus brings the BA2 bloodline via his dam Kamali (A11-526), whom herself has blue blood parents in A07-006 and A07-018. 3. What could she be? Vega could be the best investment you ever make! There is absolutely no downside in this genetic combination and lots and lots of explosive potential. We promised to offer top genetics at our inaugural premium young Ankole heifer auction, and she clearly delivers! Definitely one of this auction’s, Fire Sky’s and arguably the country’s top offerings! *Fire Sky Satisfaction Warranty included
