Since 2020, this pigeon loft has been racing exclusively with old and yearling hens. A conscious choice for Jos, who refuses to be a slave to his hobby and therefore races and selects the pigeon family with an iron fist. At the Van der Weerden household, there's no boasting or grand gestures, but pigeon racing in its purest form, where only the very best are given a place. For years, he's been building a pigeon breed that not only boasts speed, but above all intelligence and character. He's had great success with two sons of Benny Steveninck's 'De Gueret' paired with the Geerinckx breed, with national winners in both lines! Furthermore, the breeding loft consists primarily of pigeons from Willem De Bruijn, Tom Van Gaver, Gevaert-Lannoo, and brother Jan Van der Weerden, a foundation Jos has relied on for years. The auction debut of this top loft at Pitts is a happy event, so fanciers, take advantage!
