2018 Derby 508 AU BB Cock

He is inbred back to 2009 KARGES 361 AU who is genetic combination of Jemal/Grondelaar/Jan Arden and is half- brother to “Mauricio”  and represents the best of the Mauricio Jemal Janssens selected by Piet DeWeerd and the Jan Ardens also selected by Piet DeWeerd. #361’s  half- brother is 2004 Jemal 676 BBC "Mauricio" BBC; who was an AU Registered Elite-Champion.  In 2005 he was flown twelve straight races.

The next year he won two out of four Derby Races. He was an outstanding breeder. His direct children were 1st Y2K Auction Race 2006, won $2200; 3rd AU National Convention 2009 ,won $9,000; 2nd Detroit Motor City Race, won $3000+; 11th AU National Convention Race in Omaha won $1650;

#361 is a product of a Brother/Sister mating (Nestmates). Beautiful foundation Cock and Hen. They were bred from the original pigeons that I acquired from Maurice Jemal when bred with a son of a Persoon Import from Ralph Wilcox's. The Jemal pigeons had been crossed by Miguel Galas with a 1st Belgium National Ace Pigeon who was a Jan Aarden from Piet De Weerd. Just outstanding Pigeons. All World Class. Also bred into #508 is the top pigeons from LK Coral with the Malta Janssen, another 1st National Ace. And last but not least My Grondelaar Family from Alphonse Versprille via Piet De Weerd. Piet hand- picked 20 pigeons from Jan Grondelaar's Stock loft when he was on top in Belgium for Alphonse. They put Alphonse on top of many races here in the USA. 1990 AU National Convention Race 6th equal 4th, 10th equal 7th and 33rd. 1st 1992 AU National Convention Race in Hawaii. 1st Drop San Diego Classic 1991 winning $8300. 7th 1991 FVC Summer Classic winning $7000. $3000 winner in the FVC Snow Bird Futurity. And many other money winners in the Snow Bird race itself for Ed Lorenz and Marty Ladin as handlers. This pigeon has a long history of winners and it's all good. This medium sized apple bodied young cock has exceptional feather, buoyant , spirited and would make a really great addition of performance genetics  to anyones breeding program. This young cock has not been bred or raced.
