My name is Stuart Wilcox from Bristol in the UK and I am a lifelong pigeon fancier. In 2018 I met Dick De Leeuw at the “Gouden Duif “ in Antwerp and after a few beers in fact many beers he suggested I tried some of the BEYERS range of corns. Part of my breeding stock is from Albert Derwa who had always talked of the quality of BEYERS so for me it was an exciting prospect.
In the UK we have quite varied racing, the majority of the races are from France which means the pigeons have to fly the Channel. In good weather, this is ok but weather patterns and winds are often unpredictable so it is often the case that pigeons have to fly longer hours to get home. I often hear the term feed to win, however in modern times I believe the fancier also has to have an eye on feed to allow a pigeon to come home, even when it makes a mistake. Our race program starts at 100km and finishes at 960 km’s. Whilst it’s true to say that not all my pigeons compete all the way through to the final race, I do house my middle and long distance pigeons together and I feed them on the same system.
I spent some time studying the various mixtures that BEYERS offered, one thing I really liked was that some mixtures were linked to certain fanciers and there was lots of information and videos (You-tube) explaining various methods. It was easy for me; I wanted to fly a middle distance pigeon like Gerad & Bas Verkerk and a distance pigeon like Gerard Koopman. What I also took into account was that Gerard Koopman and Gerard & Bas Verkerk are both famed for their performances on very heavy flights and this suited the problems we encountered racing the English Channel.
In 2019 we combined PREMIUM VERKERK SPORT and PREMIUM KOOPMAN ALL-in-ONE as our main racing mixture. Straight away we spotted some real differences in the pigeons, soft plumage and plump muscles with a nice pink tone and the birds were really active. We noticed a massive uplift in the birds exercise around the loft and the birds would really fly with zest. I work so I have to leave every morning at 7.30am, its always a risk that I cannot get my pigeons in on time, esp when they exercise really well however what we also noticed on this feeding system is that once the traps were open the birds would quickly enter the loft which we put down to the liking of the Peanuts in the KOOPMAN ALL-in-ONE mixture. The cocks are feed add-lib twice a day and the hens once a day.
“39” who flew 15.34 hours to win 2nd Provincial Thurso 850 km on his first ever race North.
We are now on our third year using this system and we have only changed it slightly. To enable the transition from no exercise to high exercise at the start of the season we now add PREMIUM VERKERK LIGHT for around 6 weeks to include pre-season and the first two races, we also use PREMIUM VERKERK LIGHT for Yougsters. We were fortunate to receive advice directly from Bas Verkerk and now mix VERKERK LIGHT with our sport mixtures for 3 days (never 100% light mix) adding more sport as the week goes on with 100% sport on Thursday and Friday. We also add CONDITION from BEYERS at least 3 times a week, which is combined with ENERGY OIL or Zell Oxygen.
We set out with the aim of an all-round feeding program and I believe we have achieved that. Results in 2019, 2020 and 2021 at short to middle distance have been exceptional however in that time fed on the same feed we have managed 1st National (Section C) Barcelona 1174km, 2nd Provincial Tarbes 926km, 4th Provincial Pau 870km. Due to restrictions we could not fly from France in 2021, one of my top south road racers was sent to Thurso, 850 km to the north, he has never been in that direction in his life, he was timed at 9.34pm to win 2nd National (Section C) after 15.34 hours on the wing, testimony that the feeding system gives my birds all of the nurturance and energy they require.

CO-CREATION BEYERS PREMIUM WAL ZOONTJENS YELLOW

Champions choose BEYERS
À partir du moment où Wal Zoontjens a commencé à jouer des pigeons de manière totalement indépendante en 1968 à Riel (NL), il a toujours été présent dans les championnats. Déjà dans les années 30 du siècle dernier, le père Jan Zoontjens était à la recherche de meilleures méthodes de soins. Son fil conducteur à cet effet était le livre « Alimentation, vitamines et pigeons » d’Arie van den Hoek.
Sa vision a été à l’origine des mélanges que Wal Zoontjens a développés avec les conseillers techniques de BEYERS et proposé à l’utilisation pour tous les amateurs dans le monde entier depuis 1989, BEYERS PREMIUM WAL ZOONTJENS YELLOW « Le seul, le vrai ! » Avec la signature du grand maître.
BEYERS PREMIUM WAL ZOONTJENS YELLOW reste toujours un mélange de base idéal pour tout schéma de nutrition.

BEYERS a développé avec Gerard Koopman le GOLDCORN KOOPMAN, un ingrédient unique (protéines animales et graisses provenant du fromage, lait et de la graisse de mouton), qui a également été ajouté à leur première co-création : le mélange PREMIUM KOOPMAN ALL-IN-ONE, le plat principal et le dessert en même temps.
Le mélange PREMIUM KOOPMAN ALL-IN-ONE est développé pour pouvoir nourrir tous les pigeons, chaque jour et pendant toute l’année avec le même mélange de base. Selon le besoin, le KOOPMAN ALL-IN-ONE peut être mélangé avec de l’orge, du paddy ou le mélange ORIGINAL SUPER DÉPURATIVE.

Comme Günter approche la colombophilie sous toutes ses facettes d’une manière extrêmement réfléchie, il cherche à obtenir le plus de simplicité possible dans tous les domaines. Pour cette raison, il cherche également un mélange complet et polyvalent qu’il pourrait donner à ses pigeons pendant toute l’année, avec un nombre limité d’ajustements.
Il a développé ce mélange avec BEYERS et il a été commercialisé sous le nom BEYERS PREMIUM PRANGE « GRAND PRIX ». Ce mélange système est depuis devenu un des mélanges les plus utilisés par de nombreux amateurs du top.
