The birds had to deal with very, very strong headwinds last weekend. These were weather circumstances for the strong birds, the ones with a V8 engine inside. The birds who would be early home on this kind of race have for sure a big potential. We sent our birds to the Sermaises (362km) race. We split our team in two and sent them to two federations. Our birds managed to win the first prize in both federations. We even had the fastest bird of the whole release against almost 7,000 birds! The speed was only 1,171 m/min. Remarkable: both our winners are coming from the same super breeding cock, “Puncher”(BE17-6025361). "Black Widow"(BE22-6020269) won 1° prize in Union Antwerpen against 2,257 birds and was the fastest of the whole release against almost 7,000 birds. "Blue Widow"(BE21-6138360) won the 1° prize in the South Antwerp Federation against 1,044 birds
