Boonen Pigeons, Buggenum – Top class on the extreme long distance year after year

Every time again we can find the Brothers Boonen out of Buggenum in Holland between the best of the best on the extreme long distance. Wil & Johan are racing each on their own colony at the level they have been doing since years now. When you almost win a national race after the year you already won a national race you can say that you’re racing very strong 

What did 2020 bring for them ? 

For Johan it was especially St. Vincent that was good with 2 x TOP 100 NPO with only 3 pigeons basketed. On Bergerac he won 3/3 with 2 x TOP 40 NPO and the 2nd race out of Bergerac he won 2 x TOP 50 NPO. 

Wil did even better and won on NPO Bergerac year birds 2,7 and 9 NPO and at the old ones 8,24 and 29 NPO. On Agen he shined again with a 2nd and 45th  National against 6,844 pigeons. 

Agen Nat 6,844b : 2,45,… 
Rieux – Minevois Nat 3.354 old : 124,189,… 7/11
St.Vincent NPO 1,639 old : 11,71 2/3

Winner Marseille 2019

NL 18-1293545 “New Janske” 
1st National Marseille 2019 ( 2nd I.Nat Marseille 10,029b )

What a classful hen, as year bird she was the best from Holland over a distance of 883km in very though circumstances and on an International level she was the best of all hens and won the 2nd International against 10,029b.

When you have a look at her family you will find “Nightflyer” at fathers’ side (Jan Stevens) who won himself 2nd National St. Vincent against 3,842b and on top of that also 3 x Top 45 National. At mothers’ side we find a direct daughter from “Super Agen”. This topper won 1st International Agen against 20,072b. So if you have a look at the pedigree it are only national or international top racers that you can find in this amazing hen. 

The only full sister that ever will be sold is being offered in this auction namely 
NL 19-1784739 ( N°3 in the auction )

Super cock “Lowie”

In 2017 they won with NL 16-1731172 Lowie the 1st NPO Bergerac against 1,908b over a distance of 818km. He also won 3rd National Holland against 21,204 old pigeons. Also he is out of a family of top pigeons as his full sister wins in 2018 the 5th National Marseille against 2,750 old pigeons.

He comes out of a cock from Jos Martens coupled to the real base breeding hen of this colony “Vanity 36” who is from Antoon Vorselen. 

Golden coupling “Lowie” x “New Janske”

As the Herbots family aim for the highest quality we asked to couple these two top pigeons to each other :

1st National Marseille x 1st NPO Bergerac 

NL 20-1668606 and NL 20-1668604 are a son and daughter out of this coupling and are lot 1 and lot 2 in the current online auction. 

Other children “Lowie” can be find in lot 6 and 7, he was coupled now to super hen “Cryptos”.

“Cryptos” won herself 84th National Perpignan 3,778b in 2018 and 59th National Barcelona 4,129b in 2019. She is a crossing of their own old base coupled to a hen from Schreurs Hauben. 

Cock “Blue Marseille”

This topper NL 17-1476661 won 12th National Marseille in 2019 and comes out of the best Barcelona blood what is to be found in their lofts. 

That’s why especially an unique child out of him in this auction 

NL 20-1668883 “Blue Marseille” x “Shakira” 24th National Barcelona

The last top hen out of the heart of the colony is “Ganadora”

She might have been the beginning of all the top results in 2016, she won herself 6th National Barcelona 5,239b (16th International 17,729b) and is also already grandmother to the 3rd National Marseille in 2019 against 2,735b. 

Good blood never lies, that’s why “Ganadora” was coupled especially for this auction against the father from “Cryptos” with 2 x TOP 85 National. Those who want to score in a matter of 2 years on the extreme long distance can take a chance here. 

NL 20-1668939 “Iron Ganadora” N°5 in the auction 

Wil and Johan already like to wish all the buyers a lot of success with these juwels which are ready for breeding and we like to wish them on our turn already a big congratulation with their once again amazing season.
