The expectations in the beginning of this season were high, especially after the great results achieved in the past years. For yourself you need to ask, can it still be done better?? On the first race of this season from Geel the birds showed already their quality as “Connor”, a son of “Caribbean Bond” x “Olympic Queen” won 2nd prize against 2,228 birds in the federation Zutphen. Although the race went well, things were settled in the week after in the second race from Duffel.
Whenever a pigeon is bought, it needs to be fit in the present colony. With “Messi” it was real policy to buy as well himself as his father “Mister 48” at the total auction of Anne van Meerkerk and Jelger Klinkenberg.
Every two year Hans Eijerkamp and Sons publish a beautiful designed catalogue in which you can find all top pigeons. Every pigeon presented with picture, eye picture as also a picture of their wing with a short pedigree. A must to have for the true fancier.
This year we organize again the speed guessing of our first arriving pigeon.
