Patrick Vervloesem from Rijmenam wins 1st Provincial Argenton 1,348 olds ( fastest of 3,523 pigeons )

21 Jun 2023

For Patrick Vervloesem from Rijmenam in Antwerp it was a hit from Argenton, his old 2 year old widower won against the weather a handsome 13th National against 13,103 old ( 1st Provincial against 1,348 old and fastest of 3,523 pigeons in the province of Antwerp ). His 2nd arrival was the favorite of Patrick, a yearling cock who showed himself well as a youngster last year and whoever can show himself here as a youngster usually gets even better as a yearling. That's how it happened, as a youngster this cock won a 1st prize on sprint and raced top from Argenton National. This year as a yearling he did not miss and he again won a 1st prize in the sprint and he won the 1st prize locally from Bourges as well as from Argenton. At provincial level he wins 2 x TOP 15 in difficult circumstances, but that is when the Vervloesem pigeons are at their best.

Widowers

The widowers are on top of the old widower's lofts of the past, very good brick lofts where many top pigeons have raced. The pigeons were coupled in the spring after the yearlings had only been here for one week, but that was not really a success. He let them sit together for 3 weeks, some were brooding, some mated well and some had nothing at all. But he said that was not a problem in view of the season. After those 3 weeks training could start and completing a full hour is more of a rule than an exception here. Sometimes there are even days when they are allowed to fly for 2 hours, but not every day, so continuing to train and keeping the day after a little shorter so as not to force it in the beginning is ideal, according to him. They therefore have a solid basic condition on which he builds further during the season. During the season they train either 2x short or 1x one hour. Depending on how warm it is, but the cocks always train first thing in the morning.

The hen is always shown during the motivation, in the beginning it is just half box and they stay together for 30 to 60 minutes when they return home. Afterwards, the hen is sometimes left with it when basketing and they stay together until the evening when they return from national races. Between the 2 national races the cocks don't get any rest and they always fly Quievrain or Noyon, according to Patrick this is better because rest only rusts.

The power supply used here is always from Beyers, Patrick works a lot with Galaxy Sport Light and Galaxy Energy. The pigeons are regularly checked by An Havet and in terms of by-products he works with products from Schroeder – Tollisan and Belgasol from Belgica De Weerd when they return home. So far the racing team has not had any cure or yellow drop against tricho because no tricho is detected during the check. Only they were treated with Soludox in mid-May before they went to their first provincial race from Blois. During the winter and breeding period, the pigeons get Avidress from Röhnfried or Wonderpigeon every day.
