Great start to the season for Jan and Ellie Sas from Dreumel with their Eijerkamp descendants; once again 8. and 9. Provincial Bierges against 16,149 pigeons
Jan and Ellie Sas from Dreumel are enjoying a fantastic start to the season, thanks in part to their victory in the first Bierges race with their top hen "Ellie" against 2,688 pigeons.

Provincial Chimay in 2023 against 6,835 pigeons and has placed in the top 60 Provincially four times in 2024, including 8. Provincial Bierges against 16,149 pigeons last Saturday. In addition to their 8. Provincial position, Jan and Ellie also secured the 9th Provincial. Both pigeons boast a high percentage of Eijerkamp blood in their lineage. "De Poot" is a grandson of their foundation pigeon NL10-1272564NL10-1272564, a direct Eijerkamp and 100% Heremans-Ceusters, and the 9. Provincial prizewinner was bred from a direct Eijerkamp cock.
