14/01/2016 - Good successes with the Eijerkamp-van Loon pigeons
In 2008 Danie purchased three Eijrkamp-van Loon pigeons from the Eijerkamp Family, two cocks and one hen out of the Silver Shadow"Silver Shadow" line.
These pigeons were:


He crossed their descendants with his Koopman pigeons out of the "Aladdin" and the "Zina" lines.
The pigeons out of these crosses have made Danie a well-known man within the NFS Combine in South Africa the last few years.
In the NFS Combine (80-90 members in and area of ca. 90 km) he won a.o:
- The Overall Championship
- The Short Distance Championship (Vitesse)
- The Middle Distance Championship
- 2nd Champion Long Distance
- The Young Bird Champion (three years in a row)
The descendants of the above acquired Eijerkamp-van Loon pigeon fly especially well on the one-day long distance race in South Africa.
The descendants of NL10-1274671NL10-1274671, also an Eijerkamp-van Loon, out of "Bruce" and "Gabrielle" are also flying extremely well.
Two years ago Danie obtained from Hans and Evert Jan Eijerkamp, three Heremans-Ceusters pigeons, which he crossed on the Eijerkamp-van Loon pigeons, mentioned above. Out of this crossing he has already bred several 1st prize winners.
Regretfully, Danie’s foundation hen, NL07-1370362NL07-1370362, passed away, but fortunately, he still has seven of her sons and grandsons sitting in his breeding loft.
She was a tremendous breeding hen. Her descendants still produce winners in the third generation.
