LUC DE LAERE – The dream year 2022…


For Luc and his wife Sybille, 2022 was an absolute dream year! Objectively speaking, this shot was one of the best of 2022. When the weather cooperated, they were able to claim two national wins. And even when the wind was bad for them, they won with a lead on three national races with the youngsters 1st Provincial (2x Argenton and Châteauroux). Their stock is still based on the Tieke, Bliksem and Wittenbuik strains of Gaby Vandenabeele.

Luc, are you going to change anything for 2023?

“Last season was exceptional, but we find that the cocks' results are much more regular than the females. Maybe I don't know the female game well enough, but for 2023 we will only send the cocks because they have always reliably scored with the best results. I know this game and the more I think about the pigeon sport, the more I look for simplicity. In classic widowhood, the quality of the pigeon is the most important aspect. The things you improve or spend more time on bring immediate results. The only supplements we use are Röhnfried! We've been giving them for years and the results are great.”

The Röhnfried system on the De Laere loft looks like this:

In March, the widowers receive Hexenbier with Avidress Plus in their drinking water for four weeks. In the last two weeks, the feed is moistened with UnseGano, dried with Pavifac brewer's yeast in the first week and with a herb-vegetable mix in the second week. In April, ie during the first short flights, Mumm and Bt-Amin Forte are always in the water when they come back from the flight. For three meals after the flight, the feed is moistened with UsneGano and dried with a herb-vegetable mix. On Tuesday and Wednesday, Hexenbier and Avidress Plus are administered via the drinking water.

As the season progresses, when the distances get longer (middle and heavy middle distances) in May, the system will be adjusted. If the pigeons have to spend two nights in the crate, they get a combination of BT Amin Forte, Mumm and Rotosal on their return. If necessary, they get this three meals in a row. From this moment on, the feed is moistened with Gervit-W and UsneGano and dried with K+K Protein 30000. This allows your muscles to regenerate quickly. After that, the pigeons get Hexenbier in the water for about two days. The feed is moistened with Hessechol and dried with conditioning powder RO200. On the day of use, they add Avipharm to the water and, depending on the weather, the same amount of Rotosal. "Thanks to this system, we had a great 2022 season that we will never forget!"
