Gerard van Tuyl – Hellouw

The long distance crack from Hellouw is probably the pigeon fancier with the best nightflyers in the Netherlands. Many times he clocked a whole series of pigeons in the middle of the night or very early in the morning of various flights. Just look at a few examples like: Angouleme 22 pigeons clocked in the night. The international winner from Pau was clocked at 04.41am, the 3rd international Perpignan was clocked at 06.10am; the international Barcelona winner, RODICO, probably flew during the nightly hours, otherwise he could not have been clocked at 7.04am. The national Brive winner was clocked at 6 o’clock with a 3 hour lead. The national winner of M & R de Bruin, a direct Gerard van Tuyl pigeon, was also clocked at 5.22 am.

 

What is the origin of his strain of pigeons?

In Gerard’s lofts you can find pigeons of the Van Zantvoort brothers, St. Michielsgestel (Jan & Theo Ernest, Adrianus van der Wegen and Lazeroms/van Zelderen), Hagens brothers, Achthuizen and the late Theo Ernest (DON PEDRO and DE VAN ZELDEREN). About 75 % has the blood of the Theo Ernest species running in their veins. Gerard has already been buying his pigeons from Ernest ever since 1993 and he also took over Ernest’s last ten pigeons.

 

Characteristics of Gerard’s pigeons:
* pear shaped
* small feathers (swallow type)
* fly in any kind of weather
* night flyers

Due to this characteristic, the great urge to come home in combination with the enormous endurance of his pigeons, Gerard van Tuyl won much! Very much! Six times he won a 1st National Extreme Long distance/Marathon flight, which resulted in two International victories! This big champion won: 1st International Barcelona, 1st International Pau, 1st National Brive, 1st National St Vincent, 1st National Ruffec, 1st National hens Narbonne, 2nd National Aurillac, 2nd National Brive, 2nd National hens Marseille, 2nd National hens Narbonne, 3rd International Perpignan, 3rd National St Vincent, 3rd National Bergerac (+ carwinner). But Gerard also won the CUP VAN WALLONIE at Barcelona, and the prestigious title Keizer van de Grote Fond at the ZLU, 1st Super Prestige ZLU, 1st Pyreneen Cup, 1st Champions league, 2nd Europe Cup, 2nd Europe Marathon.  

The 90-2772243 JONGE DAX from Gebr. Van Santvoort has become one of the stock pigeons in the loft (25% of his blood is from good short distance pigeons). The “night flying” started with his daughter, DEN BRIVE, who won a 1st National Brive with 3 hours lead, clocked early in the morning. A son of DEN BRIVE, 97-1526267 DONKERE BRIVE surely got his mother’s genes as he arrived 3 times around 05.15 in the morning. He in turn became the father of cracks like NACHTVLINDER and NACHTFEE who repeated this piece of art. The NACHTFEE did it twice! She arrived from Perpignan at 00:15am and at 01.45am. Generation after generation toppers are born with this quality. A hen that was spared during the theft is the 97-1526227 PERPIGNAN 27. She has undoubtedly become the contemporary ancestor. She has won a 3rd International Perpignan in 2001, among others. Together with a few of her best children, the PERPIGNAN 27 has been very valuable in building the stock, with the most successful results achieved by the pairing of TWIN and DONKERE BRIVE.
