System

This year, Walter Roziers is using the chaos system for his old birds and his yearlings. Next year, he will give the widowers permanent partners. He mixes the feed himself, as his father did, with different mixes for breeding, feeding and purification, depending on the period. The pigeons are given electrolytes and treated for head disease and trichomoniasis. For the youngsters, he uses the same programme, but they are played "at the door".

Not his first time

Walter Roziers is no stranger to the great successes of pigeon racing. With his partner Jan Fierens, he won the Agen national competition in 2016 with their checkered cock 'The Stealer' (B14-6084324), which was the fastest of the 6,748 pigeons entered at the time. In 2021, they repeated this feat with 'Free Bird' (B17-6038743), which beat the 8,839 Brive pigeons.

With these impressive victories, Walter Roziers remains an important name in pigeon racing, and "Alvin Lee" is a new star in his loft. Walter, congratulations from the Herbots team.
