Young birds from heaven

Yesterday we wrote about our top result on the national Argenton (555km) race. The same day we had the middle distance race Melun (310km) and our results on this race might be even more impressive. We split our young birds team in two and sent them to two different federations. Twice they crushed the competition. We have such a strong young birds team, it is a real delight to have them on our racing loft. In Union Antwerpen they won the 11 (!) first prizes, in the ZAV Federation federation they won the 7 (!) first prizes. Please keep in mind that birds had to deal with headwinds from start till finish.

All together our birds won 86 prizes of 96 entered birds or a prize percentage of 90%!

Can it be any better?

The first prize in Union Antwerpen was won by a super beautiful daughter of "Olympic Elektro"(PL0264-2013-400)

The second prize in Union Antwerpen was won by a super talented bird, bred from 'Father Iron Man' x 'Mother Mustang'. Of course we don't need to present "Mustang"(B14-6175237) and "Iron Man"(B17-6025089) to you.

The first prize in the ZAV Federation was won by a son of "Delphine"(B11-6282004), which means he is a half-brother to "Elektro Junior"(B16-6032012).
