Willem de Bruijn…Sensational Start To The 2023 Young Bird Campaign…

Yesterday was the first young bird race for the Samenspel Gouwe Ijssel in Afdeling 5 South Holland an area that is a traditional Hot Bed of the most competitive fanciers in the Dutch Pigeon Sport. Willem de Bruijn has been amongst the very elite for many years and believes in his good friend and travelling companion Ad Schaerlaeckens theory of breed from everything in the loft, as many as possible and select only in the races by top performance.  Keep doing this for year after year and severley reduce the numbers by only retaining the very best at the end [...]

Gerard & Bas Verkerk 1st,2nd,3rd,4th,5th,6th National Sector 2 Tours 7782 birds.

What a result! We're used to this type of result from this partnership already, but given the circumstances this was not a result that was easy to achieve.

The entire provincial including Bas and Gerard received an 'uppercut' with a very bad race from Nevers.  The liberation was after three night’s basket, and the temperature plus the south easterly wind made sure that in the evening they only [...]

Rik Hermans ~ 1st Antwerp Union Melun 1210 birds…

Last Saturday 17th June 2023 Rik Hermans wins 1st Antwerp Union Melun against 1210 birds in a very unfavourable North East wind. His yearling Blue Hen is as you can see from the pedigree a typical Rik product of multiple performance DNA. Very well done indeed.
