15 Jul 2024

Putte - Kris Cleirbaut delivered an impressive performance on the national flight from Limoges. He took first place in the province against 975 yearlings. At national level, his pigeon managed to secure second place against 6,838 yearlings, and in addition, this pigeon became the second fastest of 13,727 old and yearlings combined.

BE23-6153117 

This checkered white flight hen is Kris' provincial winner. In addition to this performance, this pigeon previously flew a 186th place national in Bourges against 20,328 pigeons and a 3rd place in Noyon against 510 pigeons. What is particularly striking is that this pigeon descends from parents who have previously bred top pigeons:
Father "Dieter" of Willy Daniels is father of the 6th national ace KBDB G.M.D. YB.
Mother "Little Darling" of the Van den Brande Brothers is a.o. the mother of the 6th national ace G.M.D. young pigeons, 15th national ace G.M.D. young pigeons and grandmother of the 5th national ace G.M.D. young pigeons.
