Belgian Trip-Spring Exchange 2014

[ovy1255]

well as this season has finished we all start thinking of next year and what birds we are going to breed off next year.

for a number of years i have added a few y/birds purchased abroad when going on organised trips as well as a few car trips,but the last two years i have gone with the Darlington trip [gillys trip] and this year the y/bird prices have been emailed to me,and i thought some of you guys might be interested in the prices for 2014,so here is the email

 

got the names of the pigeon men and prices

leon witrouwen (herenthout)

35 euros

paul wijns (herenthout)35 euro

jos heylen(herenthout)35 euro

johan van herck(herenthout)35 euro

walter verboven(bouwel)35euro

victor de belser(berlaar)75 euro

johan de belser(berlaar)125euro

alfonsbudts(berlaar)40euro

frans de coux (berlaar)75 euro

eddy belmans (nijlen)35 euro

so that gives you idea of prices for next year ---last year birds were available off walter dox and tamara cuester but had to be ordered.

last years trip when on loft visits to johan de belsers[his dad victor was there also]then off to walters where the guys that ordered picked their own and also down to our courier for our loft visits johan van herk[great guy] does all the organiseing for us and all the translation--lost without him-also pic of me at lier,well you have to go-and guy you might like to do some research on that sells his birds on lier market--fabien peters.

this year instead of loft visits the guys are meeting us at club HQ at herenthot [spelling]and bringing six to eight y/birds each for our perusal.and a buffet so think it will make a change.

got some pics on other pc of last years visit will post later.

i also stay in touch with Willy Jacobs and his wife Jacquiline and emailed her the list to see what willy thought and will post their relply.

Hi Terry , Thanks for your mail,it is interested to now what they ask for young birds,some prices are to much,35 euro is good.

Terry we had it sussed where to go and booked them Holland here we come lol

[JohnQuinn]

Can anyone tell me who the best fancier/s is in the Ostend area of Belgium?? Only found out last night that my nephew is married to a girl who has family over there. No just any family, the guy is something of a Superstar over there due to a Basketball career and doesn't have to buy a drink anywhere in that area. So i imagine he might be held in the same esteem by the Pigeon Fanciers too.

[just ask me]

you will pay for birds off tamara she houses some of best lines of leo heremans they dont come cheap these days lol

well someone is doing his research.

[Wiley]

Lol I knew about Dirk few years back Ovy, after his 1st Belgian National young birds. But I had no idea he sold on the market. I was watching his results unfortunately how many birds he sends is what put me of for making contact with him must be about 3-4 years ago now.

i was pleasantly surprised when he contacted me through his neighbour as his english is poor --to check out my purchases off him.

[Wiley]

How did they do for you Ovy?

[ovy1255]

bought two -hawk had the red one off the loft the other made the race program and went down at our national MAIDSTONE along withde belsers one of van herks and my fed topper from tamara cuester-pigeons that had scored at club and midweek club races at sprint distance.

wasnt my best race with poor returns---no birds that went down off that race have returned.

started season with 32 finished with 15 young birds --lot better than some worse than others.

[Wiley]

Whose birds are you looking to bring in next season to try?

[ovy1255]

would like to get a couple off willy jacobs direct if i get across in the car definately trip to patrick lismont at tinnen[spelling] maybe dennis dillen and trip to see frans and derk marris itegem.

when talking to jacquiline [willys wife] she says he has had a good season[and he is no spring chicken]with a reduced team he is still making his mark.
