In 2017 Peter Janssen (Kleve) sold his foremost breeding loft on the PIPA auction site for a fortune. In this exclusive auction one of the best sons of the "Euro," that is the "Euro Junior" was on offer. The "Euro Junior" and his hen "Lady Bendner" were both bought by Hans & Evert-Jan Eijerkamp.
Today the pigeons were released in Bierges (187km) and we had basketed 135 pigeons. The weather on the flight line is cloudy with occasional chances of a rain shower and a southwest wind.

Today it was beautiful weather with a slight north-northeast wind, so the pigeons had the wind against. We could not get an absolute top result like last week but with a price percentage well over 50% we are very satisfied.

Do you also want to be informed of the performances in our lofts and want to know immediately when our first pigeon arrives that is possible again this year.
The name Eijerkamp needs no introduction to anyone in the racing pigeon sport. Everyone knows the now 83-year-old Hans Eijerkamp and his 56-year-old son Evert-Jan Eijerkamp from Brummen.
This is the race program in which Hans and Evert Jan want to participate this year. This program is subject to change.
We are proud to announce the launch of our new website. Many of the functions that were already present on the website are present again. The focus is now more on images instead of text.
On 1 March an auction, of 12 pigeons, ended at Herbots. The Herbots family prepared this auction fantastically, with the result that the auction was a great success. The 12 pigeons were sold for a total of EUR 47,900, which means an average of EUR 3,992.
In 2017 the title Superstar middle distance Gouden Duif was won by Hans and Evert Jan Eijerkamp.
