Piet van de Woestijne & son have been among the best racers in the Division 8 for years. Their years of playing in true champion style against all the grandmasters in the wide surroundings came to an abrupt end because of the well-known pigeon fancier's lung, pulmonary fibrosis and asthma, with which Piet has been struggling lately. The son is a truck driver, and because of the busy work schedule, he lacks the time to take care of the pigeons.
Over the years, they built their strain with the pigeons of Leo Heremans, in recent years very successfully inbred with the best of Willy Daniels - Kessel, Gebr. Vandenheede and in recent years with the super pigeons of the Gebr. Leideman and G & S Verkerk.
The BE15-6036610 (Half-sister of ‘Aske 1’ - ‘Aske 2’ - ‘Stefany’) of Willy Daniels, can be labelled as one of the best breeding hens of the Netherlands in recent years. Until the 3rd generation, top pigeons were already bred from this wonder hen, mostly coupled to NL16-1526386 son ‘Lagerfeld x Katja’ - direct G & S Verkerk, Reeuwijk.
