A Promising Start to the 2026 Young Bird Season

Today marked our first young bird race of the 2026 season, and as every fancier knows, it is always one of the most exciting moments of the year. Before thinking about results, there is only one question on your mind: Will they all make it home safely?

Fortunately, they did! 

We won 1-2-3-4-6-8-11-12-13-14-16-17-18-19-20 etc. against 1.307 pigeons from Reusel 111km. 

We basketed 114 pigeons and we won 88 prizes. 

Even better, our entire team returned quickly, arriving in groups one after another, right in front of trainer Michal. Seeing the youngsters drop so confidently around the loft was a fantastic reward for all the hard work put into preparing them.

Our first arrival was an outstanding granddaughter of our World Best pigeons Zoe"Zoe" × Bor"Bor" (Leideman bloodline). She is bred from our excellent hen Feline NL23-9099766NL23-9099766, and we are incredibly proud to see this family continue to excel.

Zoe not only a superstar herself but also truly a fantastic breeding hen. 

The second youngster home was a daughter of our outstanding breeder Yellow Submarine NL24-8209584, a son of the legendary Geeloger"Geeloger". Her dam is our top hen Maud Febe NL24-8207926, a daughter of the magnificentMr. Expensive"Mr. Expensive", bringing in the renowned Willem de Bruijn bloodline. Maud Febe’s mother is Grizzly Diamond"Grizzly Diamond", an exceptional daughter of Viton"Viton" × Daughter Goed Grijs"Daughter Goed Grijs", one of our very best breeding pairs from the Leideman family.

Our third Youngster NL26-8475022NL26-8475022, was another granddaughter of Geeloger"Geeloger", bred from the same dam, Semerian NL17-1819622, as our outstanding hen Olympic Amber"Olympic Amber"

Once again, our favorite bloodlines are proving their exceptional quality from the very first race of the season. It gives us tremendous confidence for the weeks ahead.

We are incredibly proud of our entire team of young birds and are looking forward with great excitement to the rest of the 2026 season.

Michal (25) and Hans (91) happy after this successful race!
