JCA Starbright – Foundation Highland Cow
Born September 30, 2016 at JCA Highlands
JCA Starbright Pedigree and AHCA Registration Information
JCA Starbright — affectionately known as Fiona — holds a special place in our hearts as the first calf ever born at JCA Highlands. She is the daughter of our beloved LSR Starlight (“Starry”), and from the moment she arrived, she captivated us with her charm, beauty, and playful spirit. Fiona was truly the calf that cemented our love for this amazing breed.
Her name, Fiona, is the Scottish word for “white,” perfectly fitting her striking color and heritage. As she matured, Fiona began to closely resemble her mother — so much so that it’s often hard to tell the two apart in the pasture. Like Starry, Fiona is eye-catching, elegant, and structurally correct, with excellent feet, strong conformation, and a well-attached, productive udder.
Following in her mother’s footsteps, Fiona has produced four heifer calves to date:
-
3 Dun Heifers
-
1 Silver Heifer
We’re thrilled that Fiona has continued the tradition of producing heifers, each one as special as the next, and we look forward to seeing how they develop.
Genetic Information:
Fiona has tested as a carrier of the Myostatin NT-821 Deletion gene, which we carefully manage within our breeding program to maintain soundness and structural quality in her offspring.
With her exceptional pedigree, stunning appearance, and strong maternal instincts, Fiona continues to be a shining example of what we strive for in our Highland program.
