This top male is directly descended from the foundation male NL17-1339105 “Argenton”
The pedigree of “Argenton” reads like a fairytale and proves once again that supers come from supers. In this pigeon, we find the best from the Gebroeders Scheele (Superboy) combined with Verkerk, Hooymans, and Koopman. There is nothing better available on the market.
The father of “Argenton” himself flew 5 times in the top 5 of the popular teletext races in the Netherlands. The apple didn't fall far from the tree, and “Argenton” proves to be a true foundation breeder for Kristin and Robert. The following impressive list was flown by his offspring:

What a list, and to think that this male is from 2017!
In purchase 1 & 2, “De Mooie” was paired with a granddaughter of “New Bliksem”, the star that brought Gaby Vandenabeele the 1st national Tulle to Dentergem.
In purchase 3 & 4, “De Mooie” was paired with a female from the Combination Traas. Half-sister of the 9th Olympiad pigeon 2019 middle distance, from the lines of “Harry” Jan Hooymans and again the best of the Gebroeders Scheele.
Purchases 5 & 6 are offspring of the foundation male NL17-1339105 “Argenton”!!
Here is a unique opportunity to obtain the best of the best. These purchases are therefore half-brothers/sisters of the father of purchases 1, 2, 3 & 4 “De Mooie”. The mother of these purchases is a direct Jan & Tom Iwens pigeon from their foundation pair! Top-class!
Purchase 7 is a grandchild of the foundation male “Argenton”.
The father is an inbred product of the world-famous “Harry” from Jan Hooymans, and the mother is the nest sister of “De Mooie”.
An auction that is truly bursting with quality.
We wish Kristin and Rob much success in the future and thank them for their trust in us to bring these beautiful pigeons to sale.
