Rino Verheye from Aalbeke has had a super season in 2022

13 Feb 2023

Rino Verheye and Miranda from Aalbeke in West Flanders have had a super season, their superstar "Luigi" has been a whopper in the long distance races in recent years, but had his best season in 2022. He won a total of 4 x TOP 10 National in the long distance, which is extremely unique at this high level in the pigeon sport, and his performance from Libourne kept him in the running for national ace pigeon in the long distance for a very long time. After all the calculations he became 2nd National Ace Pigeon Long Distance KBDB 2022 and Rino still gets goosebumps when he talks about this achievement. Because it is not only “Luigi”, but other clappers also did fantastic. He also won 8th National Ace Pigeon longer middle distance KBDB with the yearlings, won 1st Provincial Fontenay 2,232 youngsters and from Libourne he won 7th and 8th National in extremely difficult circumstances. At Argenton National with the yearlings he clocked 3 pigeons in the first 70 National and took 14/14. Rest assured we haven't seen the last of this colony.

Superstar Jommeke

One of the standard bearers of this colony is “Jommeke” BE 16-3005665. He himself was a real wonder racer who belonged to the very best Ace pigeons 2 years in a row and was 2 x 1st Prov Ace Pigeon All Round in a row in 2016 and 2017 in the province of West Flanders. Few pigeons who have done that before and after him. Afterwards he was placed in breeding and several toppers came out. What luck and a good choice by Rino not to sell such a topper.

In his period in the breeding loft he became

Top pair “Moses” x “Jennifer”

They were coupled together for the first time in 2020, immediately resulting in 2 top hens, both of which are already top racers and proven breeding hens.

“Mozes” is a son of 2 proven top racers in 2016 and won himself 7 x per 10 as a youngster. Afterwards in the breeding loft he only got better. "Jennifer" is a checkered white head hen that comes directly from the old stock couple "Benny Hill" x "Emillia". She is a full sister of "Hercules" and several other toppers.
