Our pigeons won the following result in the ‘BAB’ federation:

During the off-season we wrote a few times that we have bred some very promising babies out of our superstar “Mustang”(B14-6175237). In 2015 we have bred 6 babies of “Mustang” for the races. We coupled him with three different hens to have a better look on his breeding potential. After the training races, 5 of them were still present on our loft. All 5 children of “Mustang” have won early prizes as a youngster!
On this Noyon race we had entered 4 babies of “Mustang”(B14-6175237), all hens. Well, these 4 hens won the 1° - 2° - 6° and 21° prize! The least you can say is that this looks very promising for the future!
The first prize was won by the blue hen B15-6026002. As mentioned before, she is a daughter to our super pigeon “Mustang”(B14-6175237). She has got a great origin. She is bred off the couple 1° fast.
