Saturday 8th April 2017 saw the start of the 2017 season in Brabant , Netherlands. Our old bird team have looked in great condition over the Autumn and Winter months and we were very pleased with the team performance on the first race yesterday. We scored 16 prizes from 33 entries with many very early positions. We also managed to score early with our nominated pigeons, so its also a good start in the Championship table.

She was bred from MAX from one of our new younger breeders who has now bred seven first prize winners with three different hens. We have only ever raced 5 direct children from Max in total with all five scoring and three individuals winning first prizes in three seasons. Max was bred by Leo Heremans from his renowned Nieuwe Rossi x Eenoogtje (New Dream Couple) that have without doubt been onc of Europe’s principle breeding couples of the last few seasons. All of the direct children we have owned from this couple have bred multiple winners.
