Deneys Dimitri, a well-established name in Pajottenland for years. This top loft seems to get stronger year after year. Where the emphasis used to be on speed and small middle distance, the focus is now on heavy middle distance. And how, with among others a 1st Zone B1 Bourges & fastest of 8361 pigeons in 2021 and many more outstanding results.
Residing in Liedekerke, Flemish Brabant and working as a project officer at BNP Paribas Fortis, Dimitri is a third-generation pigeon fancier. As a toddler, he already climbed the stairs to reach the attic lofts of grandfather Achilles βJulesβ Deneys, who played together with Dimitri's father, Ivan. It is here that the pigeon virus took hold of him. At grandfather Jules' and father Ivan's, the priority was on speed flights. This changed in 2010 when they started racing under their own name. In those first years, the focus remained on speed, but the small middle distance also became their playground. After years of dominance, they decided to shift their focus to the heavy middle distance from 2020 onward.
The bloodline of pigeons Dimitri can rely on for these races is based on the following fanciers:
- Heremans Leo (Vorselaar) via Danny Roelandt (Denderhoutem): daughter βDe Gilbertβ x βGolden Lady 751β.
- Verhestraeten Sylvain (Herentals): line of βDen 2β - βChanelβ - βGladiatorβ- β¦
- Limbourg Erik (Brussegem): line βDe Janβ - βQueen Blue Aceβ - β¦
- Reynaert Antoon & Hilde (Passendale) both direct pigeons and via Danny Roelandt (Denderhoutem): line βDe Figoβ - βDe Schichtβ - β¦
- Samson β Boye (Mechelen): line of βHavikβ - β¦
- Bosmans β Leekens (Beverlo): line βLucky Lukeβ - β¦
- With this lineage, 15 breeding pairs were created that yield about 80 offspring.
Small basket
The racing season starts with only 8 cocks and 15 racing hens. The cocks, each allowed to raise 1 chick, are paired such that these chicks coincide with the second round of the breeders. These are neither darkened nor artificially lit, and before their first race, they are taken out about 4/5 times to a maximum of 25 km. Afterwards, they go into the big basket and the season can begin. The start of the season depends somewhat on the weather; they try to start in such a way that the pigeons have done 2 small middle distance flights before they go to the national races. The training of the cocks is done without flag and is increased in duration as the racing day approaches. The evening training before the racing day is considered the most important; it shows whether the pigeons are ready for their task. The cocks are kept in the classic widowhood system with stay-at-home partners. During the season, the pigeons are fed based on a mix of a broad mix, super diet, and a sport mix from the brands Paloma, Vanrobaeys, and Beyers, individually in their boxes. They also receive electrolytes twice a week and homemade tea from βDe Gustβ in the water. As by-products, mainly brewer's yeast, vitamin mineral, grit mix, chalk stones, and power mix are on the menu.
The racing hens are, unlike the cocks, darkened and also played in the classic widowhood system with stay-at-home partners. For the last national races, they try to basket them on a nest. The training of the hens is done with the flag when necessary. Meanwhile, the hens are taking over, so Dimitri is gradually reducing the number of cocks. Dimitri: βWe get the impression that we can play more and longer in the season with the hens on the heavy middle distance races.β
The system with the youngsters is based on the sliding door. From mid-March onwards, the youngsters are darkened until the longest day of the year. This is from 5 PM, allowing the youngsters to wake up with daylight in the morning. The training of the youngsters happens once a day and in a relaxed manner. When all the youngsters begin to fly well, the 2 rounds are released together. Once they move off sufficiently, the training baskets are brought up, and they go 6 times from 2 km to 25 km, after which they go into the big basket for a 60 km flight. Once at the races, they are played as widowers on the sliding door and come together for about half an hour before basketing. When pairs form, they are removed and put in the basket, while the unpaired pigeons may stay in the loft a bit longer so they can find a partner in peace. The focus here is on the play with the old pigeons, but the youngsters are given enough experience until they fly a few national races.
For the medical aspect, they go to veterinarian Bjorn Geeroms for both the racing and breeding season. The mandatory vaccinations for paramyxovirus also take place here. The youngsters are vaccinated for the first time at the age of 6 weeks, and they are also vaccinated against smallpox (brush). 3 to 4 weeks later, a second vaccination is administered.
When asked what Dimitri thinks is important to perform well, he replied: βFirst and foremost, the pigeon itself; they must be capable. Care and consistency (everything at the right time) is, of course, an important factor, and the motivation of the pigeon shouldn't be underestimated. If you can motivate a pigeon so much, it can surpass itself at the right moment and perform phenomenally. The results here in Liedekerke prove that they have mastered this more than sufficiently.
We wish Dimitri and his father a hearty congratulations on the impressive results, and we are sure we will hear much more from this top loft in the coming years.
