Due to the busy schedule at their beverage centre, Herwig and his son Elias were forced to reduce their pigeon stock and focus primarily on racing young birds in the future. No sooner said than done, and the competition immediately knew what time it was! With top breeds such as Van Den Abbeel-Van Paesschen, Van Gaver Tom & Marnik and Balcaen Marc & Rudi under their wing, it was difficult to go wrong. They had a really good year in 2025 and had one of the best seasons of their career. In this auction, each and every pigeon is a gem, shining in their plumage and with golden blood in their veins! What more could you want?
