The power of Willem de Bruijn pigeons knows no limt
18 Oct 2024
Willem de Bruijn...introducing him is no longer necessary. Anyone who has ever met Willem will remember the conversation forever because Willem has no lack of clarity. That is very enlightening but can also be very confronting. If someone calls him and complains about his own performance, it doesn't take long before they are asked the following question: are those kites of yours from good ones? Then the conversation very often ends very quickly. This frontal approach is not always appreciated. Even when someone expresses an opinion on something, the question invariably follows whether he has tried it himself.
Could there be anything that he has not tested extensively? Willem is still looking to improve methods by trying them out himself. Only to usually find out that the simplest way is often the best. And the eternal search for better pigeons also continues unabated.
Willem de Bruijn is in his seventies and still passionate about his hobby. ‘Fondness and not Sport. The latter is a word that does not suit our hobby,’ is his opinion.
When we contacted him for his results, it didn't take half a day or all the info was neatly in our mailbox.

DE PATAGOON… THE BEST OF WILLEM DE BRUIJN
In the Netherlands, Jan de Werd is world-famous for his ‘pigeon feed trade’ and associated supplies such as grit buckets.Jan is Willem de Bruijn's feed supplier and invested in direct Willem de Bruijn pigeons through various routes. The very best was hardly enough and then we are talking about direct children of all famous De Bruijn pigeons such as ‘Murphy's Law’, ‘Uranus’, ‘Phoebe’, ‘Hurricane’, ‘Jacob’, ‘Red Rum’, ‘De Herman’, ‘Viscount’ are in the breeding loft of fanatic Jan.
Especially for Pigeon Bids, Jan bred a strictly selected group of 2024 pigeons, all born from original Willem de Bruijn pigeons
