The sensational successes can be attributed to Stephan Machiels and Sabrina Brugmans. Year after year they manage to achieve provincial and national victories. Her place of residence, Halen, belongs to the province of Limburg and is right on the border with Flemish Brabant. For this reason they can take part in 5 to 6 races every week, starting from the short distance to the difficult middle distance. At the beginning of the season, however, all pigeons are first trained on short-distance flights.

Stephan, are there anything special about your loft?

“We only play with about 60 females on the adult flights. The birds are only played as young pigeons. But this year in particular, our young birds achieved top prices on the young animal flights. There are 20 birds available for 60 traveling females. At the beginning of April, the females are divided into three groups and each female is paired with a bird for approximately 5 days. So that the females are a little calmer and do not moult so early, they are darkened from the end of February to the end of May. This means that the females can be played here in Halen until the end of August without any problems.”

What does your care for racing females and young pigeons look like?

“We see an important component in the supply of Avidress Plus and UsneGano. We put this combination in the drinking water of all pigeons all year round. When the pigeons come home from a prize race, there is always Hessechol in the trough. During heavy flights and high temperatures, the pigeons receive Rotosal with Carni-Speed ​​every day. We have found that this allows the pigeons to train even more at the loft and get into even better shape. We regularly use Bio-Air-Fresh on the pads, which has a positive effect on the respiratory tract. For the young pigeons we use products that have a positive influence on the intestines and digestion. Here we no longer want to do without Moorgold, Entrobac, immune boosters, energy oil and the herb-vegetable mix. We also use RO200 Ready to ensure top shape. We give this regularly with the energy oil in the feed.”

Stephan, who was your absolute travel ace this year?

“Definitely “This Britt”. This year she will be 1st national ace pigeon heavy middle distance KBDB Old Pigeons 2023, with top prices.
