Engels Jules & Yves from Putte, thanks to their old stock “Limoges” and “Argenton”, are again participating in the best

The Engels family in Putte, years of tradition of pigeons and especially very strong pigeons that perform very well with a headwind. After their super season 2021, you knew that 2022 was going to be another super year if the flights went as usual as in normal pigeon weather. But it turned out to be a very hard season, which means that the “English” pigeons are getting a little better than.

Afterwards, “De Limoges” who became the new rising star with 1st National Limoges 15,009 pigeons came to the fore and where now mainly children, brothers and sisters provide excellent descendants in the breeding loft.
