DHN ISLA | Beautiful Dun Highland Heifer | AHCA Registered **Dalkena Highlands | Newport, Washington** Meet Isla! ๐ŸคŽ This gorgeous dun Highland heifer is the perfect combination of beautiful coloring, registered genetics, and a personality that keeps us smiling! Isla is curious, sweet, and just a little mischievous. She's the kind of young heifer who likes to investigate what's happening around her, and we absolutely love watching her personality develop. But Isla has much more to offer than her good looks! **Sire: KHH Bruce (D), AHCA #67,082** Bruce is a registered dun Highland bull with established genetics through Lone Spring Fergusson, FairviewVly Braveheart, Findley of Maple K, Oda of Sleat, Flatheads Glen Elgin, and Double LL Gillium. **Dam: RMF Mae Belle, AHCA #65,554** Mae Belle is a beautiful registered red Highland cow bred by Rainier Mountain Farms in Orting, Washington. She has consistently demonstrated a good temperament and has been a valued member of our fold. Mae Belle's pedigree includes Boomer of Spring Creek, X-Man, Raindancer of Five Star Farm, Sheridan of Five Star Farm, Viking Fold AnnaBelle, and DH Exclusive. Together, these bloodlines give Isla a strong foundation of documented Highland ancestry from established breeding programs. **And her temperament is another reason we love her!** Isla is naturally inquisitive, sweet, and full of personality. She has a playful streak, but overall she's a lovely young heifer with promising potential. With patient, consistent handling and the opportunity to mature, we believe she could become a wonderful breeding female. As Dalkena Highlands continues refining our fold around Highland beef production, carefully selected genetics, temperament, and our growing farm experiences, we're making some difficult decisions about which animals to retain. Isla is not being offered because she lacks quality. We're simply narrowing our breeding program to fit the future of our farm. **Isla is AHCA registered. Individual registration number available upon confirmation.** Her dam, RMF Mae Belle, is also being offered for sale, presenting an opportunity for interested buyers to inquire about both females. Located in Newport, Washington. Hauling arrangements may be available. **Don't overlook this beautiful dun girl!** She has the looks, the pedigree, and a personality that makes her a promising addition to the right Highland fold. Serious inquiries from experienced Highland owners welcome!
