Now that the season goes further and the “heavy” flights are on the program, the credentials achieved by pigeons with Hooyman’s blood are really moving in. It’s almost impossible to mention everyone, to be afraid we forget to mention some fanciers.
A few eye-catching results we would put in the spotlight.
Combinatie Van Wanrooij, Geffen, winning 1st NPO Limoges with line Jonge Bliksem x Dirkje
It is a ‘golden year’ for combination Van Wanrooij, the results at the NPO races are stunning. Last Saturday, they won for the 2nd time this year the 1st NPO, now from a very heavy Limoges (1191mpm). Also from the total concours, departments 1-2-3 together, Van Wanrooij was the winner against 8.038 birds!
Responsible for this is the 2 year old hen, 15/156. Last year as a yearling she won already a 8th NPO Chateauroux! Her father is a Minderhoud cock. Her mother is bred by Cor de Heijde, directly from “Lady Future”. Lady Future is an original Jan Hooymans hen, directly from the stampair Jonge Bliksem x Dirkje, so she is a full sister “Harry”. The nestmate of “Lady Future” was “Future Boy” and he is father to 1st National Bordeaux ZLU at Cor de Heijde.
