Rudy Denies from Sint-Joris-Weert wins 1st S.Nat Nevers 3,291 yearlings and 1st S.Nat La Chatre 3,399 yearlings
29 Jun 2023
Last winter we already visited the colony of Rudy Denies in St.Joris Weert. The pigeons fly here in the parental lofts of Patrick Draye's father and together they run the colony here. In 2022 they won the 1st National Ace pigeon middle distance yearlings KBDB with their super crack "Rolex", of which there are now again 2 Semi-National winners from the same family from Nevers and La Chatre. These flights are organized with AWC and Limburg in between the national flights.

Both with cocks and hens, but in classic widowhood
They race here with a racing team consisting of cocks and hens, but both groups have partners that stay at home. The motivation must be there and total widowhood and a too large racing team is not an issue here, they prefer to be strict and like to keep an overview of the number of pigeons.
The widowers were allowed to brood for 10 days in the spring and were then coupled for another 5 days during the training in April. They always get to see their hen during basketing, but only for a very short time. In the beginning this is barely 1 or 2 minutes and as the season progresses this can be a few minutes longer. The cocks are not allowed to mate with their hen before they leave, a system from the past but in which Patrick still firmly believes. When they return home, the time they can stay together is also only 1 to 2 hours and depending on the middle distance, this is then 4 to 5 hours. Now after Argenton they were allowed to stay together until the morning after. The widowers always train twice a day and they still do this very well.
In terms of nutrition, they have changed to the Aidi mixtures this year and Aidi Vliegmix 1 and 3 are being fed. Only the pigeons for the long distance also get Aidi Long Distance in their last feedings as a separate extra, otherwise the pigeons are always fed together and it is not easy to feed them right away.
What we give as extra products during the week are Recupfly and Hepasan from Probelfly. Zell Oxygen and Optimix from Herbots and before departure they receive Herbosol and MMK from Herbovet. On the day of basketing they always get a yellow drop in their mouth.
