Syndicate Lofts - Breeding Champion Racing Pigeons

On our foreign visits we select the bloodlines that achieve the highest awards for the top fanciers year after year. Famous strain names and so called pure families are of little interest to us. It is the absolute top line of pre-potent pigeons that we feel can produce racers of the highest quality.

Birds of these bloodlines are tested by ourselves and our partner in the biggest one loft races around the world; Mike Ganus of Ganus Family Lofts, Indiana, USA. Mike is owner of arguably the strongest breeding loft in the world, with over 30 National Ace and Olympiade champions currently at stock. View breeders

Remarkable success has been achieved not only in these one loft races but also at Mikes partner loft in Holland managed by Hans and Peter Colijn. Read more about us
