Eric Deprez from Gits has the best Barcelona racer of the past 4 years in his lofts
06 Apr 2023
We already visited here in the winter of 2017, Eric Deprez is the name. A name few may say until you have to play against it, his love for the extreme long distance has existed since the beginning of his career. This colony gradually grew and grew into one of the best Barcelona colonies out there. If you have 2 x the best pigeon from Barcelona in 5 years, during 4 and 5 years, you can count on an extremely strong basis. These 2 toppers have the same father "Karel I", which is what everything revolves around in this colony.
He caught the bug through his father who mainly played speed, but that was not for him. So he soon knew that extreme long distance was going to be his dada, he started this in the 1980s and the pigeons that made the good weather then still do it without bringing in too many pigeons. The stock of the colony is now mainly built up with Noel Peiren, Georges Bolle, Leon Messiaen, Robert Heylen and then 2 toppers from the Netherlands ( Theo Ernest and Wijnands & Son ). View all the best racers of the past years and you will always find this strain of pigeons in the pedigree.
Especially for the Barcelona special, Eric is auctioning 2 gems from the very best of his colony.
