WBTX MS SHIGKIKOMARU WB97N - FB127555/EAF127555

Fullblood Red Wagyu/Akaushi - Open Heifer

DOB: 2/3/2025

SIRE: LAG HEARTBRAND 1395E

DAM: WBTX MS TAMAMARU 154K

COI:2.5

Shigkiko 97N carries one of the most significant sire pedigrees of any animal in this sale. Her sire, LAG Heartbrand 1395E ET, is a direct Shigemaru x Akiko cross - the original foundation import queen bred to the breed's premier marbling sire - making him a full sibling in breeding to Heartbrand Big Al 502 himself. The same mating that produced the most important sire in American Red Wagyu history produced this heifer's sire. Akiko's direct influence as paternal granddam, combined with Shigemaru's elite marbling genetics, creates a sire profile that connects 97N to the very foundation of the breed in the most direct possible way.

Her dam, WBTX Ms Tamamaru 154K ET, is a full sibling to the dam of Rueshudo 67N offered in the preceding lot - both Tamamaru x DCR Ms Rueshal 188XH - bringing Tamamaru's foundation growth, Rueshaw's marbling outcross through JC Rueshaw 92, Big Al depth, and the direct JVP import female UKB Ms Hikari Homare J30E through the same proven dam line that distinguishes the Walking Brisket Ranch program.
Together, the cross unites Shigemaru's marbling dominance and the original Akiko's all-round excellence with Tamamaru's growth and the Rueshaw outcross - four distinct foundation pillars, with Akiko herself present as a direct ancestor rather than a distant influence buried in generation five.
A young female from a program producing consistent quality, with the depth of pedigree to anchor a breeding operation for decades.
