Hello again, Mr. Herbots,
I would like to inform you that your pigeon has just arrived, in excellent condition and handled with great professionalism. It is already eating, drinking, and settling into its new home.
I was very inspired by the pedigree and by the 2026 breeding book — I am truly eager to begin my work.
I am not a very sentimental person, but I must say that I am deeply moved by the opportunity to start again in the sport that I love so much and was forced to abandon a decade ago. I will never forget the impact you had on this, as you were the one who made it possible.
Today marks the beginning of a new life for me — the day I return to being a pigeon fancier.
I will remain in contact with you for future business and updates.
With my highest regards,
Bruno Costa

Congratulations to Mr Nelson Kenny from Great Britain, he is a good friend of the Herbots family and has bought a number of pigeons from us. One of them is a full sister of OLYMPIC RICO, she is now the mother of GB 24-571243 who won the 1st prize on 200 km Hotspot 7 against 1,241 pigeons in the DUBAI One Loft Pigeon Race FCI on February 4, 2025! Really proud Herbots pigeons are doing fantastically well in OLR!! Of course we would also like to congratulate Bart&Nance Van Oeckel, they breed the father of this winner!

Hello Jo, Raf and family,
As discussed with you during the national day in Mons, we have just received the ranking for the 2024 speed ace pigeons for the EPR.
For our small colony (see mini colony: 3 breeders, 1 yearling and 14 young birds for 2024) we take the 6th Ace pigeon speed (category 2024) for Hainaut and we rank with it in 8th place overall for Hainaut/Wallon Brabant united (EPR), all this at short notice by handing over 40 km to the other participants and all this with your descendants!
The dad being the son of Jo's “gift 2020” on a daughter of 505 from 2007, base of the colony of Mr Dany Leturcq
Attached as a document a small film showing the young female as well as her grandfather (gift that Jo gave us in 2020 when purchasing a second female Yvan line) and pedigree of her mother (HOOYMANS), no pedigree for the dad because we don't have the computer program to do it. We would like to thank you for your honesty and for your valuable advice during our meetings, without which all this would not have been possible.
We believe that from up there, your dad and ours are proud of their family.
Another BIG THANK YOU to the HERBOTS family.

Hallo Spfr. Job Herbots
Habe im Sommer 2022 einen Sohn von Olympic Rico mit der Nr. 2131218-22 Grizzle bekommen.
Im ersten Zucht Jahr waren die Jungen Tauben leider nicht 100 % gesund und wir verloren viele Tauben....
Aber 2024 hatte ich an Sohn Rico eine Tochter meines top Vogel 1056 gepaart... Und siehe da... Zwei Söhne flogen den 1.Konkurs im Jungflug....
Am 10.8.24 der 01248-24-33 in der FG bei 676 Tauben 120 Km....
Am 24.8.24 der 01248-24-82 in der RV bei 328 Tauben 140km....
Die Tochter 01248-24-81 ist in Dubai one Loft Race dabei... Und zeigt sich sehr gut...
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Harald Hecher
