Ype Hemstra never stands still. While many fanciers continue to rely on their tried and tested lines, Ype is constantly searching for innovation and improvement. This progressive vision is also reflected in his breeding loft. In recent years, he has purposefully added a new top line: pigeons from none other than Tom van Gaver. The name Tom van Gaver is synonymous with absolute top class worldwide. His pigeons not only excel in national races, but also prove themselves in the toughest international One Loft Races. His exceptional stock is built around two absolute standard-bearers: “Finn” and “Tetske.” They form the backbone of a colony that excels at every level.

“Finn” proved his exceptional class with, among other things:

• 1st Provincial Tulle 1,591 p. (17 minutes ahead) - 1st Nat. Z Tulle. 2,761 p. - 9th Nat. Tulle 7,322 p.
• 7th Provincial Vierzon 7,057 p.
• 12th National Zone La Souterraine 2,545 p.

His descendants also perform at the highest level, including:

1st National Ace Pigeon Middle Distance KBDB 2020

1st National Ace Pigeon FCI World Best Pigeons 2022

1st Final OLR Victoria Falls 2022

In addition, numerous places of honor in OLR and KBDB rankings (1st, 3rd, 3rd, 4th, 4th, 7th, 11th, 13th, etc.) and no less than three times 1st Provincial Ace Pigeon KBDB.

“Tetske” also confirmed the exceptional quality of this stock with, among other things:

• 1st Nat. Brive 4,238 p. and fastest of 7,994 p.
• 1st Prov. Blois 5,208 p. and fastest of 6,046 p.
• 1st Prov. Orléans 6,154 p.

As a mother and grandmother, she left her mark on absolute top performers, including:

• 1st Final & 2nd Ace Pigeon Europe Masters OLR 2021
• 1st Semi-Provincial Heusden 6,844 p.

Her sister “New Tetske” continued this line with the title 1st National Ace Bird Long Distance KBDB, an ultimate confirmation of the exceptional hereditary power within this family.

In this Finn Special, 8 carefully selected pigeons are offered, including:

• 4 grandchildren “Finn” x “Tetske”
• 1 grandchild “Finn” x “Always there”

Via grand champion Ype Hemstra, this gives you a unique opportunity to draw directly from an absolute world-class stock.
