NL 20-4761124 "Hilly Billy 124" CH HEN BRED BY KUIPER-HILBRANDS
Out of Super 68, 1st National Lorris from 3,121 birds, by a full brother to 1st National Sens winner Prins Esmee
NL 20-4761124 "Hilly Billy 124" is a chequer hen bred by Kuiper-Hilbrands that joins two proven Dutch families: an Elzinga / Hooymans / Van der Linde long-distance line on her sire's side and the Bert Berends line on her dam's. Her sire is a full brother to "Prins Esmee", 1st National Sens from 8,672 birds. Her dam, "Super 68", won 1st National Lorris, Northern Union, from 3,121 birds and is described on the card as an eight-times 1st prize winner. Both her parents are racers with results in their own boxes or their brother's, and three of her four grandparents are documented as producers of national-level winners.
The Sire — NL 16-1003312 "Brother Prins Esmee"
Blue bar cock · bred by TJ & J Elzinga · full brother to a 1st National winner
The sire's value lies in his brother. "Prins Esmee" won 1st National Sens from 8,672 birds, 1st NPO Morlincourt from 8,939 birds, 2nd National from 17,506 birds and 2nd Asse-Zellik from 4,122 birds. Further siblings in the same nest line won 5th NPO Châteauroux and 7th NPO Argenton, so the performance is spread across the family rather than resting on a single bird.
The card also lists results flown by descendants of this cock ("16-312"): 2nd Deurne from 1,870 birds, 17th Deurne from 10,246 birds, 5th Kalkar from 865 birds and 69th NPO Lorris from 2,981 birds. In other words, he is already breeding prize winners himself.
The Dam — NL 17-4712868 "Super 68"
Chequer hen · bred by Peter Stuut · "8 × 1st" · 1st National Lorris
Super 68 is the racer of the pairing, and her record is the most substantial on the card. At Lorris she was 1st NPO from 1,214 birds, 1st National Northern Union from 3,121 birds and 4th National Sector 4 from 6,086 birds. She also won 1st Quiévrain from 1,754 birds, followed by 7th Provincial from 5,809 birds, 21st Provincial Chimay from 8,402 birds and 51st Provincial Chimay from 4,162 birds.
Her remaining placings show consistency across a long run of races: 24th NPO Auxerre, 76th NPO Sézanne, 77th NPO Châteaudun, 81st NPO Rethel, 52nd Provincial Arlon (2,442 birds), 98th Provincial Arlon (3,395 birds) and 88th Provincial Weert from 9,392 birds. A hen who scores against fields of that size over several seasons is exactly the dam a stock buyer wants behind a daughter.
Super class hen with some serious D N A behind her !!
