This is a beautiful young hen with great potential as a breeder. Due to my shoulder surgery she was not raced and she has not been bred.
54043's father is the 2nd Champion YB in FHPC club 2020. When he started off well as a yearling I stocked him. He is a blend of Kleine Dirk and De Kannibaal bloodlines.Three of his siblings have placed 12th, 16th, and 35th champion YB as well. Intense winning genetics are in these birds.
54043's mother, 1393227, was bred and raced by Jaap Koehoorn from the Netherlands. Many may may not be familiar with him but he is well known in his home country as a tough competitor and is definitely well known in Japan. He is a top competitor of one loft races there.
See 1393227's pedigree for her race performances. Her siblings were exceptional racers too.
She is a blend of Veenstra, Janssen and a little Van Dyck.
Besides being a talented race bird she has also been a prepotent breeder for me. She has produced two champion birds in two years with two different cocks. One of those champions is the 7th ARPU Ace YB in Md. in 2022 as well. She is the best producing hen in my loft at this time.
54043 has the look and feel of a champion like her parents. I like this hen a lot but chose to sell her because she is a late hatch and I'm going to race her older siblings. Only one has been lost out of six.
Look at her. Doesnt she just exude quality?
