This is a short summary of some super top pigeons from this fantastic breeding line "Geof", the last of which we will not have seen yet. Always looking for "Number 1" is the motto of the Herbots house. This was the case in the years when Filip Herbots started with pigeons and is still the case today. Only the best is good enough.

Next winter we will definitely come up with something very special in an internet auction of this super line. Keep an eye on our website www.herbots.be.
