GB20 V 42259 BLUE ch w/f C A grandson of Olympic Hans, 1st Olympiad Pigeon Brussels 2017, out of a daughter of Man O Chester and Dark Delilah, whose line has bred 1st Combine winners over four generations.
Concentrating on the NFC & Channel racing, I am cutting back on our very successful sprint team !!
GB20 V 42259 is a blue chequer white-flight cock that joins a top Dutch long-distance line to a proven British Heremans-Ceusters family. His sire, "Dark Shadow", is a DNA-certified son of H & E.J. Eijerkamp's "Olympic Hans", 1st Olympiad Pigeon Brussels 2017 (All-Round). His dam is a daughter of "Man O Chester" and "Dark Delilah", the Premier Stud pair behind 1st Combine winners in four generations. She is herself the dam of 2nd Central Lancs Combine from 1,353 birds.
