This hen is ‘Aspen’ bred by Leo Heremans from ‘De Power’ (Son Olympiade) and ‘Zuster Nathalia’ (Daughter Favoriet Couple). This same pair also bred ‘Ambassedeur’ and ‘Nest Broer Ambassedeur’, Co Winners of 1st National Speed Championship K.B.D.B. in 2010 for Leo Heremans before being purchased by the Eijerkamp family.
‘Aspen’ is still only four years old but she is proving to be a talent in our breeding loft, not only being the mother of ‘Foxy Jen’, but many good reports of her grandchildren winning well when she was couple to different cocks.
* The very good racing hen ‘Foxy Jen’ of Geoffrey Douglas , Lurgan won again from Mallow this week. She won 1st Club, 4th Section E 127 members sent 2239 birds, 18th Open N.I.P.A. 603 members sent 8,872 birds. This was a stiff race with her velocity 1198 y.p.m.
Two weeks ago in the Irish National Flying Club race from Skibbereen she won 1st Club, 49th Open 466 members sent 4,293 birds.
In the N.I.P.A. Rosscarbery Old Bird National earlier in the season she won 1st Club 2nd Section E 133 members sent 1370 birds, 18th Open 632 members sent 5,669 birds.
Not forgetting last year as a yearling she won in the N.I.P.A. Rosscarbery Old Bird National 1st Club, 2nd Section E, 2nd Open against 6,212 birds sent by 672 members.
A very good hen indeed prepared for the job by a top class fancier…very well done indeed.
