From 1989 until 2003 the lofts of Wim Muller were known as the Combinatie Eijerkamp-Muller. In fact nothing has changed since: it is still Wim Muller and his family who manage the lofts. First in Wilhelminadorp and since two years in Goes after Wim and Rina Muller moved.

The Combinatie Wim Muller & Sons has specialised itself in the extreme long distance races: 600 miles (900 km) and above and their pigeons all belong to one great family. Wim Muller created a new strain of long distance pigeons by the means of systematic inbreeding for almost 50 years!

How it all started?

Wim Muller started his career as pigeon fancier around 1970. His first pigeons came from his friend Piet Schot who owned a granddaughter of the world-famous Zilvervosje of Meesters (de Heen, NL). Wim Muller applied the theories of Alfons Anker to this granddaughter of Zilvervosje. His other stock material were pure Aarden pigeons.

In 1980 Wim Muller detected the breeding capacities of the famous Super Couple: de Kraag x Superduivin. Children and grandchildren of the Super Couple brought Wim Muller at the international top within a few years.

In 1985 Wim Muller won his first Europa Cup. He sold the complete winning team to Hans Eijerkamp: Madonna, Genaaiden, Adonis, Marseille Star, Hercules, etc and Wim started to rebuild a complete new racing team on the same breeding basis.

In 1989 Wim Muller engaged himself in a partnership with Hans Eijerkamp and Sons and the new name of the loft became Eijerkamp-Muller. That same year the new partnership won its first national race:  First Lady  won the 1st National Perpignan.

In 1990 Mona Lisa won the 1st National Bordeaux ZLU yearlings.

Magic Boy  became 1st National Ace pigeon in the International races from Barcelona, Marseille and Perpignan ’94.

1996 brought a third national victory: Lady Sarina  won the 1st National Munchen.

1997 was a super year! Eijerkamp-Muller won the Europa Cup for the second time. Nobody did this before.  Magic Boy was proclaimed International Ace Pigeon in five consecutive flights from Barcelona.

 

Here you can read a fantastic Dutch article about Eijerkamp-Muller :

On 1 January 2004 the Combinatie Eijerkamp-Muller ended and Wim decided to continue (independent from the Eijerkamp family) as Wim Muller and Sons. Wim Muller went back to the basics, searching to solidify the strain of the Super Couple, especially the line of Genaaiden, of whom he possessed still different direct children. After many phenomenal successes and very many early pigeons Wim’s sweatest dream came through in 2019: he won 1st National Barcelona with his “Techno M”.

 

 

Together with Wim Muller we decided that the first auction we will organize for Wim Muller on Pigeoncom is a fantastic “TECHNO M SPECIAL” !

 

Wim has selected 9 super pigeons ! One daughter of “TECHNO M” and 8 grandchildren of “TECHNO M”, all inbred to his old strain of “SUPERKOPPEL” & “GENAAIDEN” and here and there like Antoon van der Wegen also did, with a “klein scheutje koffiemelk” : with only very little fresh blood (Jellema from his good friends the “van Schijndel family” and “Josse” – 2nd National Barcelona KBDB 2019 (Cor de Heide x Gebr. Hagens).
