3 Preface BALANCED COMBINATION OF EXPERIENCE AND INNOVATION Beyers can be described as a well balanced combination of experience and innovation. On the one hand we have Beyers impressive history, spanning more than a hundred years, which guarantees the extensive experience in the production of top quality mixtures for pigeons. One of the ways in which this experience is reflected, is in the unique grain cleaning process.then on the other hand we have innovation too, which hasn t merely given Beyers an impressive history, but has also resulted in the company still being one of the most prominent players within the pigeon food industry today. The merger with Dufky meant the innovative Elite Enzymix mixtures techniques, where the enzymes are added to the food to improve digestion, were now also within Beyers reach. Beyers can also guarantee the continuous optimisation of its products as a result of its close collaboration with the world s best in modern pigeon racing. TOP MIXTURES AND COMPLEMENTARY PRODUCTS BY AND FOR PIGEON FANCIERS Beyers doesn t believe in working on its products for the pigeon market from the top of its ivory tower. Pigeon fanciers are employed at various different levels within the organisation, from production to sales and management and these people can perfectly empathise with modern pigeon racing experiences. Plus the company also boasts some very intensive working relationships with the absolute top of today s pigeon racing sport, both at home and abroad. Their feedback regarding their practical experiences with Beyers products allows us to continuously optimise the mixtures and complementary products. It s essential to continue to react to this valuable feedback, as pigeon racing certainly doesn t stand still, but is, in fact, becoming more intensive and the burdening of pigeons is constantly increasing. THE PROOF OF THE PUDDING IS IN THE TASTE This old English saying means that it has to be proved in practice and that is the motto of Beyers. We do not wish to dwell too long on the fact that we strive for top quality in all of our products, but rather let the products do the talking through the results achieved by our customers. And not only the single race results, but also the various championships they won. To make a comparison with cycling; it is not only the sprints that we would like our customers to win, but also the mountain stages and the yellow jersey. That this is also the case in practice, is demonstrated by the large number of top performances recorded by our customers in recent years, ranging from top race results to National wins and National championships. Examples of this type of evidence from the practice can be found in the remainder of this brochure. Of course it all begins with good pigeons, but in a sport that is becoming more intensive; nutrition is becoming more and more important. Or like the leading Belgian fancier Dirk van Dyck aptly expressed: I never thought that corn could make that much of a difference until I switched to the mixtures of Beyers. 3

4 Introduction QUALITY IS THE MAGIC WORD FOR ALL BEYERS MIXTURES The selection of top quality grains, a fourfold cleaning process and well balanced compositions all ensure your pigeons will never go short of anything. The thorough cleaning process the grains are subjected to in particular is unprecedented. All the grains in the mixtures are purified separately twice before being mixed, after which the mixture goes through another cleaning process and finally the process is finished with a good brushing. Sieving the grains is still very much authentic manual work, as grains are a natural product and every single load will have different dimensions. The brushing of the grains results in a beautiful and naturally shiny mixture, without the need for oil to be added. BALANCED MIXTURES It s important for the mixtures to be able to satisfy your pigeons needs, which is certainly not a matter of course in case of heavy burdening. At Beyers we therefore mainly focus on mixtures which allow for maximum absorption of nutrients, in orderto ensure the pigeons can get as much energy out of as little food as possible. After all, digesting the food also uses up energy and the time in between races is often quite limited in today s pigeon racing. It s also important not to just aim for quick success, but to allow the pigeons to achieve good performance levels in the long term as well. This means the food needs to be compiled in such a way that there are no shortages of anything, ensuring the pigeon doesn t have a relapse after a number of races. Plus in addition to the diet, it s often also appropriate to provide the pigeons with some extras in the form of complementary products, as done by top fanciers too, in order to allow them to perform optimally. The top quality Beyers Plus range certainly offers extensive opportunities in this regard. FEED ACCORDING TO NEEDS It s very important to react to the individual pigeons needs when feeding them. These needs are dependent on the time of year and the amount of burdening. When we look at the nutrients in grains, we can see that the basis of all pigeon mixtures consists of carbohydrates, proteins and fats. The ratio of these nutrients must be tailored in line with the pigeons needs. The carbohydrates (sugars) always represent the biggest share. The protein content must be higher in the breeding season and after a difficult race and the fat content must be increased towards the basketing. So the key to success where feeding is concerned in the first place is achieving the right balance of the mixture. Secondly, the quality of the grains is of the utmost importance, as pigeons need to be able to get as much energy as they can out of as little food as possible. The absorption of nutrients from the food is heavily dependent on the quality and cleaning of the grains. KEEP IT SIMPLE There is no such thing as the best mixture. The reason for this is that pigeon fanciers all deal with their sport very differently. They use a variety of completely different systems and the burdening also greatly differs. The question should therefore always be, which feeding system suits me and my system best. The general rule here should always be to keep it simple. As Ad Schaerlaeckens has stated, the general rule in today s pigeon racing is that whoever makes the fewest mistakes will be crowned Champion. We would like to introduce our products to you in the remainder of this catalogue; we will provide you with recommendations regarding the products usage, based on practical experiences acquired by successful fanciers. See which method best suits your system and use it to your advantage to also bring the results of your colony up to a higher level! 4

5 Beyers mixtures for pigeons BEYERS BASIC MIXTURES Beyers basic mixtures are focussed on good quality grains at a competitive price. The mixtures are compiled using French Cribbs maize or Plata maize and are available with and without soy. The mixtures are tailored to the pigeons needs in the relevant periods: breeding, racing and moulting. The Centennium mixtures also make a return in this segment. They were created in honour of Beyers 100th anniversary. A rest/winter mixture, the specialty mixture Moulting Methionine Active and a trapping mix, which should form part of every pigeon s diet, complete this range. BEYERS SYSTEM MIXTURES The Beyers system mixtures are specifically easily digestible mixtures, which can serve as basic food throughout the entire year and which can be tailored to the pigeons specific needs in combination with other mixtures. Two of these mixtures have been compiled based on recipes produced by well respected Champions in pigeon racing: the Dutch top pigeon fancier Wal Zoontjens and the German Champion Günter Prange. Their systems have been, and still are, being used successfully right across the world. BEYERS OLYMPIA MIXTURES The Olympia mixtures were specifically developed for the German market, but have since their introduction become very popular in other countries as well, e.g. Poland and the United Kingdom. As is the case with the Premium mixtures, the Olympia mixtures are characterised by the use of small grains, which guarantee maximum absorption of the mixture. BEYERS PREMIUM MIXTURES From a quality point of view, the premium mixtures are the supreme products within the Beyers range. The emphasis is on the smaller types of grain in the premium mixtures, like small Cribbs maize and small peas, in combination with toasted soy, in order to guarantee optimal absorption of the grains. Whoever opts for premium mixtures opts to never throw money down the drain again. Plus the composition of these mixtures is of such high quality that we can refer to this as optimally nutritious. This will allow you to get the very most out of your pigeons qualities. BEYERS ELITE ENZYMIX Beyers offers a unique range of mixtures, to which enzymes have been added, with the Elite Enzymix mixtures. These enzymes are 100 natural and completely tasteless and odourless. The enzymes are not activated until after the food has been ingested as a result of circumstances in the gullet and ensure the grains cell walls are broken down more quickly. This allows the pigeons to absorb the nutrients more quickly and more efficiently.the subsequent result is threefold: The pigeon gets noticeably more energy from the food; The improved digestion results in visibly less and drier droppings; The digestibility of proteins and crude fibre is noticeably higher when compared to traditional mixtures. Within the Enzymix range we can differentiate between basic mixtures and premium mixtures, of course always with the added enzymes. The premium mixtures within the Enzymix range are recognisable by the addition Modern System. BEYERS BORDEAUX MIXTURES Through the Bordeaux Mixtures, Beyers offer a quintet of mixtures containing the authentic red Bordeaux maize. For use during the racing season we have the Premium Enzymix mixtures that can be used as three phase mixtures, but they can also be used separately. For the races in excess of 400 kilometres there is additionally the Long Distance TT. A solid mixture that provides for the needs of pigeons racing the middle distance, long distance and extreme long distance races. This mixture can be perfectly combined with the Premium Enzymix mixtures. 3 Galaxy mixtures have been added to the Beyers range: Sport Light Galaxy, Sport Energy Galaxy and Moulting Galaxy. Versatile, complete, perfectly matched to the needs of your pigeons and extremely simple to use. Discover the system of the future. DELI NATURE BEYERS Beduco has introduced a line of mixtures for fancy pigeons to the market under the brandname Deli Nature. These four mixtures are specifically tailored to the needs of fancy pigeons and are characterised by the same top quality grains and unique cleaning method as the Beyers mixtures for racing pigeons. Experience has also shown us that many fancy pigeon owners are very satisfied with using Premium Vandenabeele, Zoontjens Yellow and the Beyers Olympia mixtures. 5

8 NUTRITION IN MODERN PIGEON SPORT As already cited in the introduction, good nutrition is mainly a matter of addressing the needs of the pigeons. These needs are mainly determined by the burden on the pigeons, including the role played by weather conditions. Pigeons rearing youngsters have much higher protein requirements than pigeons that are on widowhood. Pigeons that are raced weekly with increasing distances up to 700 km have a much higher energy requirement than birds that only race sprint races or birds that are raced bi-weekly. An additional factor in respect of the burden are the weather conditions. When it is cold the birds need more energy than when it is warm weather. When the birds frequently have to deal with headwinds, they require a lot more energy than in races with tail winds. In short: the needs of the pigeons vary depending on the burden and it is up to the fancier to act adequately. The mixtures that we give to our pigeons must be balanced in such a way that they are responsive to the needs of the pigeons. Pigeon mixes consist roughly from three primary nutrients: carbohydrates (sugars & starch), proteins and fats. Depending on the needs of the pigeons, the relationship between carbohydrates, proteins and fats vary. The largest share is always formed by carbohydrates. A breeding mixture must have a relatively high protein percentage, while a mixture for the last days before a race should contain a relatively high fat content. The tip of the balance is based on the needs of the pigeons and is accomplished by varying the composition. Examples of raw materials rich in carbohydrates: Maize Because maize is very eagerly eaten by pigeons and is very rich in carbohydrates (65.5), maize is widely used in mixtures, especially in racing mixtures. In addition, maize has a lower protein content (8.1) and higher fat content (4.2) than most other carbohydrate-rich grains. There are many different types of maize, such as cribs maize, small cribbs maize, Plata maize, Bordeaux maize and Merano maize. The species differ in origin, colour and size, but the differences in nutritional values are small. Three things that are very important in the selection of the maize are the size - smaller maize is easily digested, especially during breeding - the fibre content and the method of drying. Maize can be machine dried or sun-dried. Sundried maize is called cribs maize. Machine drying is faster and therefore mechanically dried maize is cheaper than cribbs maize, but the down side is that drying maize mechanically is at the expense of germination. Wheat Due to the combination of a high nutritional value, in combination with a low price, wheat forms part of a lot of mixtures. An average grain of wheat contains 59.5 carbohydrate, 12.4 protein and 2 fat. In addition wheat is rich in minerals such as potassium, calcium, phosphorus, iron, magnesium and zinc. Wheat is available in several grades ranging from feeding wheat at the bottom to white wheat at the top end. For our best mixtures we always opt for white wheat, as it is best absorbed by pigeons. Sorghum Known as sorghum or dari. Consists of several variations, the white and red ones are the most commonly used in pigeon food. All variants are rich in carbohydrates, have a protein content of approximately 11 and a fat content of 3. Nutritionally white dari is preferable to red sorghum because of the more favourable amino acid pattern contained in white dari. Barley A grain of barley contains about 59.5 carbohydrate, 11 protein and only 2 fat. Very often barley is because of its low fat content wrongly seen as a grain to keep pigeons light. Birds, however, can become heavy due to the fact that an excess of carbohydrates can easily be converted into fat. But barley contains lots of fibres which makes pigeons feel full earlier. These fibres make barley ideal for cleansing the bowels. Furthermore, barley is very rich in minerals and trace elements such as potassium, phosphorus and magnesium. 8 Paddy Rice Paddy rice is in many ways similar to barley, but plays a more important role for pigeons as part of a mixture, especially in mixtures for the racing season. Paddy rice provides the necessary fibres for a proper bowel function, but contains a lower fibre content than barley, allowing a higher absorption of energy from paddy rice in comparison to barley. The level of carbohydrate content is 75 which is clearly higher than that of barley.

9 Oats Oats are also extremely rich in carbohydrates. They possess a level of 61.5 carbohydrate. Two forms of oats are used in mixtures, pointed or peeled. Pointed oats is very rich in fibres, but pigeons are not fussy about it. That is the reason that this form is most suited to rest and winter mixtures. In contrast peeled oats is very appealing to pigeons. In addition, oats are rich in potassium, phosphorus and zinc. Buckwheat Buckwheat is a grain that is very rich in starch and contains a very high percentage (72.6) of carbohydrate along with 10.4 protein and only 1.7 fat. Buckwheat is rich in potassium, phosphorus and magnesium. Buckwheat is generally well liked, but there are always birds who don t like to eat it. Examples of raw materials that are rich in protein are: Peas Peas are traditionally the main source of protein in pigeon feed. There are different types of peas, such as green peas, yellow peas, small green peas, trappers (small yellow peas), maple peas, dunpeas and winter peas. The protein levels range from 20.4 (yellow peas) to 22.6 (small green peas). Peas are rich in the minerals phosphorus, calcium and iron and B vitamins. Green peas and small green peas are also rich in vitamin C. In addition to the nutritional value when using different types of peas there is also the need for variation in the menu of a pigeon and lastly, the price plays an important role as well. Toasted Soy Beans Of all the grains and seeds that we use in pigeon corn, toasted soy beans are the richest in protein. Toasted soy beans contain a protein level of 36 and a fat level of no less than 19. Toasted soy beans are also rich in the B vitamins and vitamin C and minerals. Despite all these good qualities we should be careful with the dosage of toasted soy beans, since its absorption is limited by pigeons. Experience has taught us to use a guideline of a maximum of 10 in breeding mixes and up to 7 in sports mixes. Mung beans (mung beans) This distinctive small green seed belongs to the family of the soy bean. It is very rich in protein (23,1), is well absorbed by pigeons and germinates very easily. Unlike soy beans, mung beans is very low in fat (1,2). Examples of seeds which are rich in fats are: Cardy (safflower) These fruits of a thistle-like plant are especially popular in mixtures because of the high fat content (27,8) and also because pigeons like to feed on cardy. Like most other rich in fat grains and seeds, cardy is not only rich in fat but also rich in protein (14,3). Cardy contains a high content of healthy fatty acids (linoleic and linolenic acid) and a high content of lysine. The amino acid pattern is especially advantageous due to a high content of arginine. Hempseed The seeds of the cannabis plant, which are extremely rich in fat (33,5) and contain high protein values (22,7). Hempseed is gladly fed to the youngsters and does contribute to the perfect growth of the youngsters. Moreover, hempseed is known to stir up the mating instinct in pigeons. In racing and moulting season, hemp seed is a perfect source of fats. 9

10 Sunflower seeds Sunflower seeds are extremely rich in fats and proteins. They can be processed in two forms in mixtures, unpeeled (striped) and peeled. Striped sunflower seeds contain 29,8 raw fat and 15 raw protein, but contain a much higher level of fibres than peeled sunflower seeds. Peeled sunflower seeds contain no less than 44,5 raw fat and 27,5 raw protein. Due to the lower fibre level and the higher levels of fat and protein values it is recommended to use peeled in stead of unpealed sunflower seeds in rich in fat racing mixtures, which are fed the last few days prior to basketting the birds. Contrary, in moulting mixtures for example the striped sunflower seeds are perfectly suitable to use in contrast to the peeled version. Black rapeseed Black rapeseed is a small, almost black seed containing a fat percentage of 40,5 and a protein level of 20. Pigeons love to eat rapeseed and due to the extensive breeding of rapeseed, there is also no question more of the negative effects that rapeseed had with high dosages. The anti-nutritional substances that were found naturally in rapeseed were declined and digestibility reduced to zero by the development of so-called double-zero varieties. Linseed (flax seed) The seed of the flax plant is extremely rich in fat (35,6) and protein (21). Linseed contains a high quantity of omega 3 fatty acids, essential for the structure of the feathers. Hence the reason that we often see linseed used in moulting mixtures. Sesame seed Sesame seed is enormously rich in fat (42,9) and above that rich too in minerals like, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, iron, magnesium, copper and zinc. Sesame seed is rich in unsaturated fatty acids and is gladly eaten by the pigeons. White Perilla White perilla is a fairly sweet seed, which is grown primarily in East-Asia. White perilla contains roughly about 42,5 raw fat and 24,4 crude protein. Because white perilla, compared to many other high-fat grains and seeds, has a relatively low crude fibre content, the energy value is relatively high. Premium grains In short it can be said that the higher the work load of a pigeon is, the more important the corn becomes. Since the digestion of grain also costs energy it is of immense importance to acquire as much energy as possible from a minimum of corn. That is why our best mixtures (Premium and Modern System) contain only top quality (i.e. extra red sorghum and extra white dari) and predominantly small grains and seeds. On the one hand to optimize the absorption and on the other hand to limit the raw fibre content. That is why we use for example small green and yellow peas along with the small cribs maize. small green peas small yellow peas small cribbs maize 10

14 WAL ZOONTJENS YELLOW THE IDEAL BASIS Since the thirties of the last century it was Jan Zoontjens who sought better methods in caring for his pigeons. His guideline was the book named Feeding, vitamins and pigeons by Arie van den Hoek, and based on this idea he proceeded to sieve through the pigeon feed mixture of the time. He fed them small seeds and grains early in the week and the larger grains, consisting of various sorts of maize and legumes in the final days before basketing. His love of the sport and his knowledge about feeding was passed on to his son Wal that continued the chore of building a successful colony of pigeons. In particular in the nineties, the Zoontjens pigeons were hard to beat. In the CC Tilburg between 1985 and 1998 no less than on 12 occasions the 1st un-nominated overall championship was won along with nine times the 1st nominated overall championship title. In the very strong ZNB it was Wal that won the 1st YB title in 1993, 1st un-nominated champion one day long distance in 1994, 1st nominated overall champion in 1995 and 1st un-nominated champion one day long distance in Although the great desire to win has faded, Wal still was capable of winning some Federation championship positions in recent seasons. In 2012 he was crowned 2nd Champion YB s Federation 2, Brabant 2000, following the achievements of the previous year winning 8th Champion and 9th Ace Pigeon One Day Long Distance. In 1989 the contact between Wal Zoontjens and Staf Theeuwes led to the commercialization of both the mixture of small grains as the mixture of coarse feed under the names Beyers Zoontjens Yellow and Zoontjens Blue. In a joint venture with the Beyers firm the mixtures were modified qua nutritional value to the needs of the time, without, however, losing sight of the basic idea. But time has not stood still and the demands of modern pigeon sport have changed immensely since Surely for the lofts that race their pigeons every week, alternately between middle distance and long distance. It was therefore in consultation between Wal and the Beyers firm decided in 2011 to withdraw Zoontjens Blue from the market and to replace it in the feeding plan by the more rich in fat Premium Super Widowhood in combination with Premium Super Energy. The combination of Zoontjens Yellow and Premium Super Widowhood (for the middle- and long distance supplemented with Premium Super Energy) ensures that the birds are able for a greater burden and allows them to be raced in the week between the two weekly long distance races. Also for the discipline of the extreme long distance the Zoontjens Yellow mixture is an ideal basis in the feeding scheme. It is a perfect mixture for the rest period between two extreme long distance races and can be used in combination with the new Long Distance TT. Many rival companies have made an attempt to copy the Zoontjens Yellow, but they don t even come close to the original version. The selection of only the very best grains, perfect cleaning and the ideal balance of the mixture leads to the desired results. Don t be fooled, but choose the original version, recognizable by the signature of Wal Zoontjens on the label. Herman van Sande from Vosselaar (BE) is a good friend of Wal and built his own colony with the Zoontjens pigeons. Also in the field of nutrition he uses the system of Wal. Despite his age and the fact that he races a small colony of pigeons, he still knows how to record high profile results, like: 07/07/12 Provincial Brive 944 O.B s. 6th-133rd (02/03) 07/07/12 Provincial Montluçon 887 O.B s. 3rd-44th-64th (03/04) 07/07/12 Provincial Montluçon yearlings. 3rd (01/02) 21/07/12 Provincial Salbris 623 O.B s. 1st-59th-72nd-90th-185th (05/08) 20/07/13 Provincial Salbris 440 O.B s. 1st-2nd (02/03) 26/07/13 Provincial Narbonne 505 O.B s. 34th (01/01) 14

15 WAL ZOONTJENS YELLOW Also for the Dutch miracle men Gerard & Bas Verkerk from Reeuwijk the Zoontjens Yellow forms an important part of the feeding system. Ideal for the high burden that the birds of father & son Verkerk have to endure. In the beginning of the week the racing pigeons always get a light mixture composing of Zoontjens Yellow supplemented with depurative. In the second half of the week the pigeons are fed a mixture of racing mixtures, consisting of Beyers Soja Cribbs and Prange Grand Prix. In 2013 Gerard & Bas were once again on top of the game with the highlight without doubt the 1st & 6th National S2 Chateauroux against birds, but also the 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 10th NPO Chateaudun against birds, 4th & 5th NPO Bourges against birds and 4th NPO Argenton against birds. Wolfgang Roeper (Kummerfeld, GER) was in 2012 without doubt the top fancier in German pigeon sport. He dominated the National championships and was crowned 1st National Champion Middle-Distance, 1st National Champion Long-Distance and 1st National Champion Yearlings. On top of that he had the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 6th, 7th & 8th National Ace Cock and sent a delegation of no less than six pigeons to the Olympiad in Nitra. Wolfgang makes frequent use of Zoontjens Yellow in his feeding system. As he expressed himself: Buyers Zoontjens Yellow has been my favourite for years now. I use it every single day. Just cannot do without it. An absolute phenomenon in the Dutch pigeon sport is Harry Winkens from Itteren. In the last fifteen years he was crowned Overall Champion twelve times of the Federation 4 Limburg and in 2013 he finished second. Harry is an absolute all-rounder, who is able to impress from the sprint races to the long distance and with both the old birds and the youngsters. In 2012 he was acclaimed 4th Best Fancier WHZB and in th National Champion Young Birds and he also had the 2nd & 3rd National Ace Pigeon Young Birds. In 2013 Harry added another jewel to his crown by winning the 1st Federation- and 3rd National Championship Middle Distance. Harry is a great believer in a light diet and swears by the Zoontjens mixture. Indeed, during the racing season his youngsters are fed exclusively Zoontjens Yellow, until they go to distances above 300 kilometres. After that, just like the old birds he switches to Premium Super Widowhood for the last few days before the race. Marc de Cock from Temse (BE) also puts his faith in the Beyers mixtures for his pigeons. There is a very important role reserved for the Zoontjens Yellow that is used as a base mixture. From this base the birds for the various distances are served up with racing and rich in fat mixtures, like Premium Super Widowhood and Super Energy. In 2011 Marc was crowned 2nd National Champion Long Distance, in 2012 he won the 1st National Zone B Limoges against old birds and in 2013 he added the 1st National Zone B Libourne against yearlings and the 1st Provincial Cahors against old birds to his list of honours. The well known and very successful vet Dr. Fernand Mariën and his son Koen from the Belgian town of Tielen are absolute fans of Zoontjens Yellow. Their racing pigeons are served the entire week with a mix of 2/3 Premium Super Widowhood and 1/3 Zoontjens Yellow and this manner of feeding allows them to stay up with the strong rivals in the Hafo Turnhout and regularly beating them, despite the very long working hours of Fernand. In 2013 amongst others they won: 1st Angerville 645 old birds (25/05), 1st Angerville 596 old birds (01/06), 1st Melun 822 yearlings. (22/06) & 1st Angerville 678 yearlings (06/07).

16 PRANGE GRAND PRIX THE INFLUENCE OF THE TOP-SPORTER Günter Prange (Meppen, GER.) is an icon of German pigeon sport. His strain that is based on the old strain of Cornelis & Gerard Koopman in combination with the pigeons of Maurice Delbar, gave him numerous National and Regional titles to his name. Descendants of his Ringlose, won no less than five times the Gouden Duif Germany ( ) for him, which makes him the absolute record holder ever. In his youth Günter was a very good boxer and the influences he had from the top sport were used in his approach to pigeon sport. Günter is very well aware of the influences of diet on the performances and that knowledge is expressed by the mixture that he, and Beyers put on the market, known as Prange Grand Prix. Beyers Prange Grand Prix is a unique mixture, high-quality, versatile and extremely rich in nutrients, ideal for the modern pigeon racing. The mixture contains no less than 21 different ingredients, including 25 maize (cribs maize and small cribbs maize), 9 hemp and exclusive seeds like quinoa and sesame seeds. With a crude protein content of 14,51 and a crude fat content of 9,82 Prange Grand Prix offers you the opportunity to get the very best out of your pigeons. Dirk van Dyck from the Belgian town of Zandhoven is without doubt one of the best fanciers in Belgium. Having set a blazing trail along with his father Louis in the eighties and nineties of the last century with their toppers like the Rambo and the Kannibaal, at the beginning of this century it all went rather quiet by his standards. Until one fine day he bumped into Ludo Wille of Beyers and let himself be convinced to make the switch to the mixtures of Beyers. Dirk is absolutely convinced that this step partly contributed to his current successes. We will let him do the talking about his system. On arriving home the pigeons are fed a hearty mixture consisting of 50 Premium Brilliant and 50 Prange Grand Prix. The next two days followed by a light mixture consisting of 50 Zoontjens Yellow and 50 Elite Enzymix Recup. After that the preparation commences for the next race beginning on the Tuesday morning with 50 Prange Grand Prix and 50 Zoontjens Yellow and on Tuesday evening and Wednesday morning they get 100 Prange Grand Prix. On the Wednesday evening and Thursday morning it s 50/50 Prange Grand Prix and Premium Brilliant on the menu. The last feeding they get before racing is Thursday afternoon and consists of Brilliant complemented with peeled sunflower seeds. This system ensures that my pigeons keep their appetite right up until the race, whereas in the past I had trouble with the widowhood cocks losing their appetite. His list of honours in recent seasons is without doubt very impressive by winning some of the following titles: Winner Gouden Duif Belgium st Overall Provincial Champion KBDB Antwerp 2011, 2012 & nd National Champion Short Middle-Distance KBDB rd Belgian Olympiad Pigeon Category A. Nitra th National Champion Sprint KBDB th National Champion Yearlings KBDB th National Champion Short Middle-Distance Yearlings KBDB th National Ace Pigeon Short Middle-Distance Yearlings KBDB th National Ace Pigeon Sprint Young Birds KBDB th National Champion Sprint Young Birds KBDB 2012 In 2013 Dirk was once again in full swing, in particular on his two favourite disciplines, the sprint and the middle-distance. And in 2014 he finally added the only missing jewel to his crown, a National victory, on National Bourges against yearlings. Marc and Maria Vereyken-Gommers from Schilde (BE) read an article in pigeon magazine De Duif surrounding the winning of the Gouden Duif Award of Dirk van Dyck in Following this article, they decided to take over this feeding system and it led straight to success, with the victory in the opening classic of the Belgian middle distance season, Inter-Provincial Vierzon against old birds. Followed by the 2nd National Argenton against yearlings and the 9th Provincial Championship Greater Hafo KBDB Antwerp. Also in the 2013 season Marc and Maria were really op top by winning the 11th National Championship Heavy Middle-Distance Old Birds KBDB. 16

17 PRANGE GRAND PRIX Like numerous other successful German fanciers, August & David Balk from Monchengladbach also rely on the Prange mixture, and when the racing requires it at distances above 400 kilometre they combine it with Beyers Long Distance TT. The use of the Beyers mixture has not disappointed the father-son partnership in any way. In 2010 they represented Germany at the Europa Cup, to follow that up a year later by winning the 1st National Bourges against birds. In 2012 once again they were successful winning 10th position in the National Championship Long Distance. Another leading German fancier, Theo Lehnen from Nettetal, uses Prange Grand Prix when feeding his pigeons. He firmly believes that the Prange mixture contributes considerably to his achievements. Achievements, which are many to be mentioned here. We will therefore limit it to the National championships. In 2011 he was crowned 5th National Champion Yearlings and in rd National Champion Middle-Distance. He also had the 5th National Ace Pigeon. The leading Dutch partnership of Vredeveld-Leemhuis is extremely successful with Beyers Prange Grand Prix, that they mix early in the week with the easy to digest Beyers Elite Enzymix Modern System Recup and Beyers Zoontjens Yellow. In 2012 Harm, Robert & Chantal had the 3rd National Ace Pigeon Young Bird NPO and performed brilliantly in the NPO races by winning amongst others the: 15th-16th-17th NPO Clermont against b., 8th-9th-24th-27th-28th NPO Orleans against b., 12th-25th NPO Orleans against b., 4th-15th-16th NPO Quievrain against b. and 13th- 14th-16th-18th-20th National Morlincourt S4 against birds. In 2013 they continued in the same fashion with the: 4th-5th NPO Orleans against b., 5th- 6th National Morlincourt S4 against b., 6th National Chateauroux S4 against b. & 10th NPO Sens against b.

22 PREMIUM VANDENABEELE RECIPE FOR SUCCESS It is now some 20 years ago that Gaby Vandenabeele turned to Staf Theeuwes of Beyers with his ideas about forming his own mixture for pigeons during the racing season. The mixture needed to be easy to digest and low-protein. In contrast a mixture that was rich in carbohydrates and fats. The result was a mixture of high-quality grains, based on the principle paddy rice-white sorghum-safflower and with a high content of small cribbs maize, which guarantees a perfect absorption. The success of the mixture soon became very clear. In the first place in the loft of Gaby himself, where straight away in 1995 two National victories were recorded from Limoges and Brive, followed later on by National wins from Bourges and Argenton and to add to that more than 80 Provincial victories. But nowadays Gaby Vandenabeele is still one of the front runners. For example have a look at the result from National Brive Six yearlings were sent and they recorded the following positions 15th, 17th and 18th against birds. Five old birds entered and that resulted in the 14th and 25th against birds. Or even Provincial Bourges, racing against yearlings he began with the 2nd, 4th and 5th. The icing on the cake of the successful 2013 season was the title of 1st National Ace Pigeon Yearling Long Distances KBDB. In 2014 he added another National victory to his rich prize list, winning 1st National Tulle b. PREMIUM VANDENABEELE COMPOSITION Small Cribbs maize 31, extra white dari 20, safflower 20, paddy rice 20, mung beans 2, White wheat 1,9, peeled oats 1,6, extra red sorghum 1,6, barley 1, rapeseed 0,3, linseed 0,3, buckwheat 0,3 Gaby s specialism are the races from a distance between 500 and 800 kilometre and he favours racing Carbohydrates 58,90, crude protein 10,74, crude fat 8,49, crude cocks on traditional widowhood. The cocks are raced every second week and during the season there is always Premium Vandenabeele on the menu. On arrival home egg food is added for the fibre 9,39, crude ash 1,93, lysine 0,35, phosphor 0,23, methionine necessary proteins after the race and the final days before a race cribbs maize, peeled sunflower seeds 0,17, calcium 0,03 and hempseed is added. For the remainder of the year Gaby relies completely on the mixture of Beyers Premium. Premium Super-Breeding for breeding purposes and Premium Super Moulting for the moulting period. But the name Vandenabeele stretches a lot further than the area Dentergem in the contemporary pigeon sport. Gaby has contributed to the sport in three manners for the achievements in many other lofts. Through his pigeons, that are winning all over the world. By his mentorship, that helped fanciers like Rik Cools, Geert van Renterghem and Bert van den Berghe, to improve in the sport. And by means of his mixture, that forms the basis of the feeding system in numerous lofts during the racing season. By Rik Cools from Ruiselede (BE) all three of these matters come together. The basis of his current successful colony is built mainly on the Vandenabeele pigeons. Not only did Gaby help him with good pigeons, but also always supported him with advice and assistance. And also in the loft of Rik it is the Vandenabeele mixture that forms the basis of the feeding system. In contrast to Gaby Vandenabeele that only races cocks on the widowhood system, Rik is the master of the discipline of racing hens on widowhood. Another difference is that Rik s pigeons, in contrast to those of Gaby that are raced fortnightly, are raced weekly. For that reason Rik supplements the Vandenabeele mixture not only with the rich in fat mixture of Premium Super Energy, but he also combines it with the Premium Super Widowhood mixture. After selling his old pigeons three years ago Rik is back at the very top, winning in 2013 the 4th National Championship Heavy Middle Distance KBDB and the 10th National Ace Pigeon Yearlings Heavy Middle-Distance KBDB. The same goes for Geert & Annick van Renterghem from Deinze (BE). They also knocked on the door of Gaby for pigeons and were very lucky. Not only did they find good pigeons in Dentergem, but also an excellent mentor. Thus not strange, that they put their trust in the Vandenabeele mixture as well. Geert & Annick race their yearlings on total widowhood and their old cocks on traditional widowhood of which the partners stay at home. The feeding system can be compared to that of Rik Cools, but in their effort to increase the variation, Geert & Annick also make use of two other Beyers mixtures: Zoontjens Yellow and Super-diet. Bert van den Berghe from Wortegem-Petegem (BE) is simply the revelation of Belgian pigeon racing of the last three years. What else can we say about a fancier that only started racing on his own about four years ago and with a small team of birds he realized the following achievements: 1st National Gueret against yearlings in 2014, 1st National Agen against old birds in 2013, 2nd National Libourne against old birds in 2013, 3rd National Poitiers against yearlings in 2013, 3rd National Libourne against yearlings in 2012, 4th National Limoges old birds in 2013, 4th National Libourne against yearlings in 2012, 8th National Chateauroux against yearlings in

23 PREMIUM VANDENABEELE and 9th National Limoges against old birds in When he started three years ago, he went to see two of Belgians leading fanciers: Marc Pollin and Gaby Vandenabeele. The latter was found to be an excellent mentor and he followed the feeding system of Gaby completely. Premium Vandenabeele, the last few days before racing complemented with rich in fat seeds and grains. Rudy Desaer from Ruiselede (BE) is also a great supporter of the Vandenabeele mixture, that he combines with Premium Super Widowhood and to which he adds some Premium Super Energy for the necessary fats the last few days before basketting. After winning the National Champion Long Distance title in 2010 along with his father Antoine, he was the absolute star fancier in Belgium from the long distance in 2012 winning the 1st National Limoges against old birds, 1st National Souillac against old birds and 4th National Tulle against yearlings. But in 2013 Rudy had another great run of results including: 1st Provincial Tours against yearlings, 2nd National Brive against old birds and 10th National La Souterraine against yearlings. In 2014 again he won a 1st National, 1st National Cahors against old birds. Furthermore he is the main candidate to become National Champion Long Distance once again. Johny Jonckers from Drieslinter (BE) is without doubt one of the best middle-distance fanciers of Belgium. In 2011 he was crowned 1st National Champion Heavy Middle-Distance and 3rd National Champion Yearlings and in 2012 once again 3rd National Champion Yearlings. In 2013 he added to that the 11th National Championship Heavy Middle-Distance to the previous. With the descendants of his top breeder Little Joe he is still to be found in the top of the results, like the Fado, 6th National Ace Pigeon Middle Distance 2011 and the 801/09, 1st National Ace Pigeon Cat. C Long Distance Europacup 2012 and 1st National Zone C Argenton In 2013 a son of Little Joe won the 1st Interprovincial Argenton against old birds. For his widowhood cocks Johny has the greatest trust in the system of Premium Vandenabeele Premium Super Widowhood Premium Brilliant. The exact same system is to be found at another middle-distance specialist from Flemish-Brabant, Albert Derwa from Herent (BE). Derwa also swears by the triplet system of Premium Vandenabeele, Premium Super Widowhood and Premium Brilliant. Originally he made his name as a young bird specialist but is currently a topper with the old cocks and hens on widowhood. Motivation is his specialty and with the descendants of his Paulien, 8th National Ace Pigeon Heavy Middle Distance 2007, he now belongs to the elite fanciers of Belgium. In st National Champion Yearlings, in 2012 with two sons of his Paulien 1st and 2nd National Ace Pigeon Cat. D Alround Europacup and he represented Belgium at the Olympiad 2013 in the Slovenian Nitra. In 2013 a daughter of Paulien won the 1st Provincial Gueret against yearlings, while a grandson won the 1st National Issoudun against young birds. On top of that Albert once again placed himself among the National champions with the 4th National Ace Pigeon Heavy Middle-Distance Yearlings KBDB. The Dutch long distance specialists Jeroen Braad and Cees de Joode from Woudrichem also use Premium Vandenabeele in their feeding system. They combine it with Premium Super Widowhood, Premium Super Energy and Sport Soy Cribbs. Their racing system is fully comparable to that of Vandenabeele himself; cocks on traditional widowhood that are rested in the weekend between two long distance races. Their complete trust in the Beyers mixture has been rewarded, when one observes the numerous early prizes in NPO races. The partnership of the Brothers Kat & Son from Westzaan in the Province of Noord-Holland (NL) switched to feeding Beyers a few years ago after visiting the exposition in Houten. They chose for the system of Premium Vandenabeele Premium Super Widowhood, supplemented with the rich in fat mixture of Premium Brilliant the final days before basketing. Although they have been racing at a high level for years now, this feeding method appeared to give that little bit extra. In 2012 they were acclaimed 1st Un-nominated Champion Long Distance in Federation 6 Noord-Holland and their bird named Pirlo became 2nd National Ace Pigeon Long Distance TBOTB, 3rd Best Cock WHZB and 6th Best Long Distance Pigeon WHZB. Again in 2013 they had a strong season at the middle and long distance races winning series like 7th and 8th NPO Morlincourt against birds.

24 PREMIUM KOOPMAN THE MIXTURE THAT CONTINUES TO AMAZE The joint venture between Gerard Koopman and Beyers has been extremely successful and his all-round mixture named Premium Koopman All in One is one that hit the bull s eye. Premium Koopman is a solid mixture that arose from the practical experience of Gerard and is composed of no less than 25 high-quality ingredients, that can be digested easily. The unique ingredient is of course the Goldcorn, which contains animal protein and fats from egg yolk, cheese, milk and sheep fat. The best proof for the success of the mixture is the growing number of fanciers that have had success with it and not only in the one day and overnight long distance races but also in the sprint and middle-distance races. Of course the name bearer of the Koopman mixture, Gerard Koopman himself is convinced for 100 about the Koopman mixture and Gerard is without prejudice one of the top fanciers in Dutch pigeon sport. In January 2013 he was once again present at the Olympiad in Nitra, with the 3rd Dutch Olympiad Pigeon in Cat. C Long Distance. In the 2013 season he again made the headlines with some brilliant series and numerous Teletext listings, like 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 6th and 8th NPO Breuil le Vert/Clermont, 6th NPO Limoges and 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 9th NPO Sens. John van Heel (Maria Hoop - NL) has been one of the best fanciers for years in the area of Middle-Limburg and in 2012 he was also one of the absolute toppers on a National level. With a small team of pigeons(maximum 16 widowhood cocks), that are fed the entire season with Premium Koopman, he was crowned 2nd Best Fancier of the Netherlands WHZB, earned two Teletext listings (1st NPO Lorris against b. 3rd NPO Bourges against b.) and he had in his Olympic Jo the 1st Dutch Olympiad Pigeon Cat. H at the Olympiad in Nitra. In 2013 John again performed at a high level, achieving several top results, among which the 7th NPO Montluçon. The renowned Belgian duo of Jo and Raf Herbots from Halle Booienhoven were present at the Olympiad in Nitra as well. They had the best Belgian pigeon in Cat. H Old Birds. Jo and Raf put their trust during the racing season also in the Koopman mixture, which they combine with Beyers Premium Vandenabeele. On arrival home there is 100 Premium Koopman on the menu for the birds, followed the day after by 50 Premium Koopman and 50 Premium Vandenabeele. After that there are two days of 100 Premium Vandenabeele and they work towards the end of the week from fifty/fifty to finish up with 100 Premium Koopman. Their Olympiad trip to Nitra, was followed up at the end of 2013 by another high point with the 1st & 5th National Ace Pigeon Small Middle-Distance Yearlings KBDB and the 9th National Ace Pigeon Heavy Middle-Distance Old Birds KBDB. In 2014 they won 1st National Argenton against yearlings. Another Olympiad delegate who relies on the power of Premium Koopman is Frank Kwekkeboom from Enschede (NL). His Olympic Belg was the 2nd Dutch Olympiad Pigeon Cat. E Marathon at the Olympiad in Nitra. But also from the shorter races Frank is well capable of representing himself with the help of the Koopman mixture. A similar story for Danny de Voogd from Yerseke (NL), in 2013 he was extremely successful winning: 1st, 2nd and 3rd NPO Ruffec and 4th and 5th NPO Orleans in Federation 1 Zeeland. While the brothers André and Bert Leideman from Hardenberg (NL) are extremely satisfied with the Koopman mixture as well and in 2013 they were again very successful winning: 1st and 2nd NPO Orleans and 5th NPO Salbris in Federation 10, Noord Oost Nederland. The same goes for Dirk Pals from the Dutch town Bovenkerk where the Premium Koopman mixture is always on the menu. Dirk has been one of the leading National fanciers from the overnight long distance for years, but in 2012 he had an amazing season winning: 1st National S2 Bergerac b., 1st National Ace Pigeon Marathon Afternoon Liberation NPO and 3rd Best Marathon Pigeon WHZB. 24

25 Premium Koopman The father/son partnership of Dolf & Ruud Bakker is one of the most successful long distance lofts in recent years. They did not only acquire good pigeons in Ermerveen, but they also got some very good advice and the feeding system of Gerard. Some of their best results are: 1st Northern Union Blois b. 2011, 1st Northern Union Zone Blois b. 2012, 1st, 2nd & 4th NPO Mantes La Jolie b. 2013, 1st NPO Zone Salbris b., 2nd NPO Blois b. 2011, 2nd NPO Bourges b. 2011, 4th Breteuil Federation 7 Midden-Nederland b. 2011, 7th NPO Tours b. 2011, 8th NPO Chateauroux b and 10th NPO Tours b One of the absolute overachievers of the extreme long distance in the Netherlands in recent seasons is without doubt Arjan Beens from Genemuiden. Now Arjan has the Koopman mixture 365 days of the year on the menu. Not only during the racing season, but also during the breeding season, due to the fact that Goldcorn is a source of high quality animal protein, also in the breeding season it brings an absolute added value. Solely in the rest periods does Arjan lighten the mixture using paddy rice or barley, while in the run-up to an overnight long distance race it is enriched with the high-fat Beyers Super Energy. Arjan has been racing a fairly large team of pigeons on the natural system, but time and time again he records mouth watering series. In 2012 he displayed that he is capable of performing in both the National and the International races, with the most striking results being: 2nd National Perpignan b., 3rd NPO Perigieux b., 3rd NPO Orange b., 5th NPO Aurillac b., 5th NPO Albi b. 9th National S3 Cahors b. and 15th National Barcelona b. In 2013 he was present from the very first races with the top result of 1st and 4th National S3 Brive against birds, 5th & 10th National ZLU Agen Old birds against birds and the 9th National S3 St. Vincent against birds. In 2014 he crowned his career by winning 1st National Perpignan against pigeons. Another leading long distance fancier that due the advice of Gerard switched to the Beyers Premium Koopman is A.P. Overwater from Strijen (NL). He is full of praise for the feeding system of Gerard and in 2013 & 2014 the pigeons of A.P. proved that it was the right thing to do by listening to Gerard. A number of no less than 10 National top fifty positions were recorded in 2013: 15th National St. Vincent ZLU b., 16th National Pau b., 20th National S2 Bergerac b., 26th National Narbonne b., 26th National S2 Agen b., 27th National Perpignan b., 40th National Narbonne b., 41st National Perpignan b. 45th National S2 Cahors b. and 47th National S2 Bergerac birds. In 2014 A.P. won a.o. 1st National S2 Agen b. and 8th International Barcelona b.

Goldcorn is to be fed at a ration of 5 of the feed, so you only use 5 kg Goldcorn per 100 kg of pigeon feed. Examples of fanciers who have succesfully added Goldcorn to their feeding system are the Belgian top fanciers Sebastien Casaert-Senechal (Russeignies), Gevaert-Lannoo (Deinze), Chris Hebberecht (Evergem) and Vereyken-Gommers (Schilde). 25

26 Premium Mixtures PREMIUM THONÉ SPÉCIAL This versatile all-round mixture, a recipe of the Belgian top fancier Jos Thoné can be fed throughout the year with limited addition of other mixes, for example the Liègois mixture during the breeding season, Elite MS Recup and Long Distance TT in the racing season and super diet along with moulting intensifier during the moulting season. These mixtures seem to guarantee National success. Not only did Jos Thoné win two Nationals (Gueret 2009 and La Souterraine 2012), but National successes in other lofts were partly due to the Thoné mixture. For example Veulemans-Perilleux from Vissenaken (BE), who have won 1st National Bourges b. 2014, 1st National Gueret b. 2014, 1st National Zone C Montluçon b. 2012, 1st National Zone C Bourges b. 2012, 1st National Zone C1 La Souterraine b. 2014, 1st National Zone C Argenton b and 1st Provincial Chateauroux 591 b But also Marc Vanonckelen from Halen (BE) with the 1st National La Souterraine b. 2013, 5th National Ace Pigeon Young Birds KBDB 2013 and 6th National Champion Young Birds KBDB As well as Nicolas Bascourt from Braine-le-Comte (BE) with a 1st National Limoges b and 1st International Perpignan b Carbohydrates 55,53, crude protein 15,15, crude fat 6,26, crude fibre 5,87, crude ash 2,37, lysine 0,76, phosphor 0,31, methionine 0,20, calcium 0,10 PREMIUM JAN KEEN SUPERLIGHT High-quality, versatile and easily digestible all-round sport mixture to the ideals of the Dutch champion Jan Keen. This mixture can be used for the entire racing program from the sprint right up to the long distance, as Jan Keen proved in 2011 by winning the Gouden Duif the Netherlands and becoming 3rd National Champion Long Distance NPO and 6th National Ace Pigeon Long Distance NPO. His fellow townsman Henk Keizer also proved on many occasions the value of the Premium Jan Keen Superlight. In 2011 he had the Best Long Distance Pigeon W.H.Z.B. and in 2013 he won the 1st & 2nd National S4 Morlincourt against birds. Also for Anita & André Vogel Van de Pol (Soest, NL) it is the Keen mixture that has made the difference, winning in 2013 amongst others the 1st NPO Tours Federation 7 Midden-Nederland against birds.

27 Premium Mixtures PREMIUM TRAPPING MIX EXCLUSIVE During the National Manifestation in Houten Bas Verkerk & Gerard Reedijk turned up at the Beyers stand with a few questions regarding the composition of the trapping mixture. They had several ideas regarding a possible improvement of the composition. Given their expertise as top fanciers they put their heads together and a new treat mix was developed. The starting points for the development were: maximum absorption, greater variety and high fat content. The new mixture was at first tested in the lofts of the fanciers responsible for starting the process. Both Gerard & Bas Verkerk as well as Gerard & Elly Reedijk-Jongekrijg were unanimous in their verdict: The new mix fulfilled expectations on all fronts! Top performances in the races followed. Gerard & Bas won amongst other prizes the 1st & 4th National S2 Chateauroux b., 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 10th NPO Chateaudun against b., 4th & 5th NPO Bourges against b. and they finished the season with a fantastic result from NPO Ruffec (750 km): 8th-9th-11th-12th-13th-14th- 15th-16th-17th-18th-20th-21st-26th-27th-28th-29th, etc. (54/59) against birds. Gerard & Elly also had an exceptional season at all distances from the sprint to the marathon. Several examples: 2nd NPO Vierzon, 4th, 12th, 28th, 38th & 46th National S2 Chateauroux, 43rd National Pau, 44th National Marseille, 73rd & 98th Nat. St. Vincent, 93rd National Barcelona, but also 1st Pommeroeul against birds & 1st Peronne against birds. It did not take long for other fanciers to catch on to the new trapping mixture of Beyers and they too were provided with some test bags. All of them were extremely positive about the new mixture: The Van Wanrooij Partnership (Geffen, NL) repeatedly recorded brilliant results from the races including: 1st, 2nd & 3rd Sezanne Federation 3 Oost-Brabant against birds, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, & 7th NPO Pithiviers against birds, 2nd & 3rd Epernay Federation 3 Oost-Brabant against birds, 3rd, 9th & 10th NPO Chateauroux against birds and 2nd NPO La Souterraine against birds. Highlight of the season was truly the amazing result from National Youngsters Derby: 1st, 2nd, 5th & 6th Nat. S1 Orleans against birds. A stunt they repeated a week later from NPO Orleans in Federation 3 winning 1st, 2nd, 5th, 6th & 7th against birds. To top that off, in their favourite discipline, the long distance, they were crowned, 1st Champion and they had the 1st, 2nd, 8th & 10th Ace Pigeon in Federation 3 Oost-Brabant. Gaby Vandenabeele (Dentergem, BE) had another marvellous season, especially with his yearlings, winning e.g.: 1st, 6th, 8th & 9th Provincial Argenton against 727 yearlings, 2nd, 4th & 5th Provincial Bourges against yearlings, 10th National Poitiers against yearlings, 15th, 17th & 18th National Brive against yearlings and 14th & 26th National Brive against old birds. The absolute pinnacle of the season was however the title of the National Ace Pigeon Yearlings Long Distance. Gaby too was very positive regarding the new Trapping Mix Exclusive. Jos Thoné (Niel-bij-As, BE) is always willing to try out something new and was provided with several bags of the new treat mixture. His pigeons loved it too and it played its part in the immensely successful run of no less than 8 provincial victories. Alwin Petrie (Brummen, NL) is without question one of the best sprint/middle distance fanciers in the Netherlands. Alwin is regularly in contact with Bas Verkerk and that s how he discovered the existence of the new treat mix so he demanded to try it out. Alwin too, who is very critical concerning feeding, was full of praise about the new treat mixture. After a whole period of haggling over his enforced relocation in connection with the construction of a dyke, he displayed in the late tour races what he is capable of: 10/08 Duffel b. 12th-15th-16th-17th-20th-22nd-23rd- 24th-30th-31st-51st-54th-56th, etc. (73/84) 17/08 Wolvertem b. 19th- 40th-56th-67th-70th-78th-79th-84th-90th-92nd-125th-153th, etc. (64/84) Convinced by the proof experienced in practice we are now proud to present to you our new treat mixture Beyers Trapping Mix Exclusive. A unique, versatile mixture with a high fat content. Unique through its addition of white perilla, an extremely energy rich grain, that is new in mixes for pigeons, and which pigeons love to eat.

30 ELITE ENZYMIX MODERN SYSTEM THE POWER OF ENZYMES The Modern System is based on three principles: top quality grains, the addition of liquid enzymes and simplicity in use. These added enzymes are 100 natural and completely tasteless and odourless. The enzymes do not become active until after digestion of the corn, by the conditions in the crop, and ensuring that the cell walls of the grains degrade faster. As a result, the pigeons take stock of the nutrients faster and better. The result of this is three-fold: The pigeon noticeably gets more energy from the food, the digestibility of the proteins and raw fibre is significantly higher than in the case of traditional mixtures and the improved digestion result visibly in less and drier droppings. Since the digestion of grains also costs energy, the profit is doubled. Not only do the pigeons get more energy from the same amount of food, but they also use less energy to digest the food. All of this make the Modern System the ideal system for modern pigeon racing, in which the burden on pigeons is constantly increasing. Evidence of this in practice is plentiful. The power house from the Belgian town of Russeignies, Sébastien Casaert, has relied for years on the Modern System and on the Beyers Plus complementary products. At the beginning of the week Recup, in the middle of the week Build up and the last days prior to racing Energy. Straight after a very tough race the pigeons receive Build up instead of Recup. The Modern System has never disappointed Sébastien: In 2011 he had the 1st National Ace Pigeon Heavy Middle-Distance and the 2nd National Ace Pigeon Short Middle-Distance. Alongside that he was ELITE ENZYMIX MS BREEDING COMPOSITION: Small green peas 15, small yellow peas 14, white wheat 12, popmaize maize 10, small Cribbs maize 10, dari 10, vetches 8, safflower 6, maple peas 5, hemp seed 5, paddy rice 3, toasted soy 2 : Carbohydrates 52,26, crude protein 16,58, crude fibre 6,63, crude fat 5,63, crude ash 2,50, lysine 0,84, phosphor 0,37, methionine 0,20, calcium 0,11 6th National Champion Yearlings and he was crowned Superstar Middle-Distance Gouden Duif Belgium. In 2012 he continued in the same fashion of recording series results and he was 12th National Champion Heavy Middle-Distance. Again in 2013 he regularly plagued his rivals with brilliant series and he won 6th National La Souterraine against yearlings and 6th National La Souterraine against old birds. In addition, just like in 2011, he had the 1st National Ace Pigeon Heavy Middle-Distance and he was 7th National Champion Heavy Middle-Distance Old Birds and 7th National Champion Yearlings Long Distance. Benny & Karin Steveninck from Hamme (BE) belong without doubt to the best middle distance fanciers of Belgium. Their Chipo lines are wholesalers of National and Provincial ace pigeons and they constantly are capable of realizing amazing series in the races, which was once again illustrated in 2013 by capturing the title of 1st National Ace Pigeon Young Birds KBDB. Along with that they were crowned 4th National Champion Heavy Middle-Distance Yearlings. In 2014 Benny & Karin won 1st National Tours against youngsters. Benny and Karin swear by feeding their pigeons with the Modern System. One the one hand because the added enzymes allow a maximum and accelerated absorption of nutrients and on the other hand it is a very easy-to-use system. Like Benny says, the names of the mixtures tell you how to use them: consecutively recuperation, build-up and energy. For the support of the condition and health of their pigeons Benny and Karin put their trust in the complementary products range of Beyers Plus. Luc & Hilde Sioen from Moorslede (BE) allowed themselves to be convinced by Sébastien Casaert to make the switch qua feeding to the Modern System. Soon they were convinced surrounding the quality of the mixtures and particularly liked the simplicity in use. This was quickly reflected in their results, with as tentative highlight winning the 1st & 4th National Poitiers against yearlings in 2013 and the 1st & 9th National Poitiers against yearlings in ELITE ENZYMIX MS RECUP COMPOSITION: Peeled barley 20, small Cribbs maize 15, white wheat 10, dari 10, paddy rice 10, pigeon rice 9, peeled oats 7, safflower 6, extra red sorghum 5, canary seed 4, mung beans 2, yellow millet 2 : Carbohydrates 65,80, crude protein 10,83, crude fat 4,59, crude fibre 4,70, crude ash 1,93, lysine 0,33, phosphor 0,27, methionine 0,16, calcium 0,04 30

31 ELITE ENZYMIX MODERN SYSTEM The extremely fanatical trio of Gust, Mit and Geert Van Hove-Uytterhoeven from Putte (BE) decided a few years ago to switch to the Modern System and to the Beyers Plus complementary products. They are very satisfied with the Beyers mixtures and complementary products and not only in the racing season, but also during breeding and moulting. Using the Modern System they recorded one top result after the other. Some examples: 17/06/12 National Montluçon Yrls , etc. (20/25) 17/06/12 National Montluçon O.B s , etc. (12/17) 30/06/12 National Argenton Yrls , etc. (15/21) 30/06/13 National Argenton O.B s , etc. (13/16) 30/06/13 National Argenton Yrls , etc. (14/20) 31/05/14 National Bourges Yrls , etc. (34/52) 01/08/14 National Tulle Yrls , etc. (16/36) One of the first fanciers in the Netherlands to pick up the Modern System was Gert- Jan Beute from Wilhalminaoord. When Gert-Jan promised himself several years ago that he do his best to climb up to the absolute top of Dutch pigeon sport, he not only went in search of good pigeons, but also looking for a top feeding system. He ended up with the Modern System and this feeding system contributed to his rush to the top in recent years, which led to two Olympiad pigeons at the Olympiad ELITE ENZYMIX MS BUILD UP EXTRA COMPOSITION: Small Cribbs maize 12, dari 12, white wheat 11, safflower 10, maple peas 7, small green peas 7, small yellow peas 7, popmaize maize 6, extra red sorghum 5, paddy rice 5, toasted soy 4,5, barley 4, vetches 3, dun peas 2, mung beans 1,5, pigeon rice 1,5, buckwheat 1,5 : Carbohydrates 56,41, crude protein 14,87, crude fibre 6,73, crude fat 5,69, crude ash 2,23, lysine 0,70, phosphor 0,30, methionine 0,18, calcium 0, in Poznan, the 1st National Ace Pigeon Long Distance TBOTB 2011 and the 2nd Best Long Distance Pigeon WHZB In 2013 Gert-Jan once again recorded a series of top ten positions in the Federation: 1st NPO Sezanne, 1st, 2nd & 4th Federation Hapert, 3rd Federation Hapert, 3rd & 5th Federation St. Quentin, 8th NPO Chateauroux and 8th & 10th Federation St. Quentin. In addition, through his columns and lectures Gert-Jan has brought numerous fanciers to a higher level, partly through his advice about the feeding system. For example Hetty Hopman from the town of Bunschoten-Spakenburg, who won in 2013, racing only 10 young birds, the 1st Un-nominated Championship Young Birds of Federation 7 Midden-Nederland. That the Modern System is also well equipped for the extreme long distance, becomes obvious by the performances of the Dutch duo Noordam-Vijverberg from s Gravenzande. They race 42 pairs on the natural system and put their faith in the feeding of these nest pigeons entirely in the Modern System. The greatest advantage of this system is that the birds can be fed the Build-Up mixture on the hopper without them getting fat. Five days before basketing, the Build-up mixture is replaced by the Energy mixture that is supplemented with a few handfuls of Premium Super Energy. In 2011 they recorded Federation victories from Bergerac and St. Vincent and in 2013 they were on Teletext with the 5th National S2 Cahors against birds. Also in Germany the Modern System has been picked up successfully. Heinz Willi Ritz from Jüchen belongs to the top of the German pigeon sport for decades now and trusts with prejudice the mixtures of the Modern System. SG Pfeffermann from Fuldatal also relies completely on the Modern System, in 2012 it resulted in them winning the 2nd Overall Championship Region 453 and delivered the 1st Young Bird Championship in the Region.

32 Bordeaux Mixtures The Bordeaux mixtures include first of all the Premium Enxymix mixtures. Three mixes for the sports season, which can be used as three phase mixes, but can also be perfectly used on their own. Bart & Nance van Oeckel from Oud-Turnhout (BE) use in the beginning of the week Premium Enzymix Relax with Super Diet followed by Premium Enzymix Energy, that is complemented during the last days prior to basketing for the heavy middle distance with a high fat mixture. Bart & Jurgen Geerinckx (Wommelgem BE) in contrast choose to feed the high fat mixture of Premium Enzymix Power instead the last days before basketing.

33 Bordeaux Mixtures LONG DISTANCE TT A relative new mixture in the range of Beyers. Perfect under high burden and distances above 400 kilometre, races with multiple nights in the basket and marathon races, and in particular to refuel after a tough race. This mixture contains 40 maize (4 sorts: cribbs maize, Plata maize, merano maize and Bordeaux maize), toasted soy and hempseed. The mixture can be combined, prior to racing, with the high fat Premium Power Enzymix or supplemented with the high fat Premium Super Energy. The mixture was developed by the Beyers team Germany and successfully tested by Erhard Pahnke and August & David Balk (Monchengladbach, GER). Father & Son Balk have been very successful for several years now, winning a.o. 1st National Bourges In 2012 all did not go well early in the season, until the Beyers team advised them to use Long Distance TT in combination with Prange Grand Prix. With this system they finally finished 10th National Champion Long Distance. In 2013 the mixture was introduced in the market and was soon picked up by a large number of fanciers that were extremely succesful with it.

34 Bordeaux Mixtures On page 43 you will discover the amazing results of those excellent mixtures BREEDING GALAXY After the successful introduction of Long Distance TT, we decided to use these principles to develop the Breeding Galaxy. A very versatile mix with small cribbs maize and Bordeaux maize, small peas, katjang idjoe and toasted soy and a wide range of rich-in-fat seeds such as rapeseed, hempseed, peeled sunflower seeds, linseed and sesame seed. Breeding Galaxy combines a high protein level with a high fat content and ensures perfect growth of the youngsters, who develop a silky soft plumage. Due to the combination of a high protein and high fat content Breeding Galaxy is also ideal for birds raced on the natural system. Carbohydrates 53,66, crude protein 16,91, crude fat 7,39, crude fibre 5,96, crude ash 2,46, lysine 0,84, phosphor 0,34, methionine 0,21, calcium 0,09 SPORT LIGHT GALAXY Sport Light Galaxy is an easy digestible, yet extremely rich in energy racing mixture, which forms the basis of the diet of your pigeons in the racing season. The pigeons will train perfectly and can be raced without problem up to distances of 400 kilometres with just this mix. As a result it is also an ideal mix for youngsters. The base of the mixture is based on the principle paddy rice white dari - safflower supplemented with four different kinds of maize and enriched with fat-rich seeds and grains such as peeled sunflower seeds, hemp seeds (hemp), linseed, rapeseed and canary seed. Naturally, the protein metabolism may not be neglected and in addition to the proteins that the fat-rich seeds contain also vetches and mung beans were added to guarantee that the pigeons take in enough protein and do not collapse after a number of races. Carbohydrates 54, crude protein 12,49, crude fibre 7,80, crude fat 10,91, crude ash 2,14, lysine 0,41, phosphor 0,31, methionine 0,20, calcium 0,07 SPORT ENERGY GALAXY Sport Energy Galaxy is an energetic mixture that is gladly digested by your pigeons right up to when the birds depart for a race. Sport Energy provides your pigeons with the energy required to compete, when given the last two to six feedings before basketing (depending on distance and circumstances), for the heavy middle distance, long distance and extreme long distance. To keep your pigeons eating well, this mixture was made as versatile as possible. No less than six different sorts of maize contain the necessary carbohydrates, while no less than nine different seeds and grains meet the increased need for fats. The leading role in this mixture is reserved for the peeled sunflower seeds, that are not only extremely high in fat, but also very gladly eaten by the birds. Carbohydrates 43,11, crude protein 16,44, crude fibre 6,68, crude fat 16,10, crude ash 2,76, lysine 0,65, phosphor 0,42, methionine 0,28, calcium 0,15 MOULTING GALAXY NEW NEW NEW Although often underestimated the moult is one of the most important but also most difficult periods for your pigeons. In a short space of time, especially when they have been darkened and/or lightened, our pigeon need to fully renew their plumage. For this purpose they need protein and amino acids to build strong feathers and fats to ensure that the feathers are beautiful, shiny and soft. We also have to find the ideal balance between all of these nutrients and sufficient raw fibre, so the pigeons are not too fat, as overweight pigeons do not moult properly. Moulting Galaxy is composed of no less than 27 different ingredients. The mixture contains 4 sorts of maize (cribbs maze, small cribbs maize, Merano maize and Bordeaux maize), small peas, mung beans, vetches and lentils necessary for the required essential proteins and amino acids - and many small and fat-rich seeds that promote moulting and provide perfect new feathers, such as hempseed (hemp), linseed, rapeseed and canary seed. Barley, brown rice and striped sunflower seeds provide the necessary fibers and marienthistle supports the functioning of the liver.

39 Complementery products After two years of extensive testing and further development, Beyers presents to you with pride two new complementary products. These products are geared to the needs of modern pigeon sport, in which the burden on the pigeons grows higher. Especially where there is a lot of mileage to be raced in a short period of time, like in the new National racing program in Belgium or the alternation of racing middle distance one week and long distance the following week in the Netherlands, or the sequence of races with an ever increasing distance in Germany, pigeons do not always have the time to get the required energy from corn and rely on the addition of complementary products to reach optimal performances. Beyers Plus Recovery Plus and Condition Plus were developed exactly for this purpose and also tried and tested in this manner. RECOVERY PLUS Recovery Plus is a protein preparation designed to help your pigeons recover quickly after a race. The unique thing about Recovery Plus is the use of guanidine-acetic acid, which speeds up the recovery of the muscles that are affected by racing. In addition to that Recovery Plus contains a wide range of vitamins (B1-B2-B6-B12-C-E) and minerals (calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and potassium) to get your pigeons in top condition as soon as possible for the next race. In support of the immune system Recovery Plus also contains green tea extract. During breeding Recovery Plus may be used to provide the high protein requirements of feeding pigeons and their growing youngsters. 20 gram (1 table spoon) per kg corn During breeding: once a week During racing season: once a week (on return home) CONDITION PLUS Condition Plus is a unique condition powder to keep your pigeons in top condition throughout the year. Condition Plus contains everything your pigeons need to endure the heavy loads of breeding, racing and moulting without any problems. Condition Plus has a fat content of 20 and contains lecithin and L-carnitine to also effectively convert these fats. In addition Condition Plus contains a wide range of vitamins and amino acids. In order to support the immune system of the pigeons yeast cell walls and oregano have also been added to Condition Plus. 20 gram (1 table spoon) per kg corn During breeding: once a week During moult: once a week In the racing season: twice a week The products do not only look good on paper, but they worked in practice as well, which is displayed by the results in our test lofts.

Iodine has a positive effect on the functioning of the thyroid gland and therefore also your pigeons fitness levels. A lack of iodine will reduce the libido and will disturb the combustion of fats in the pigeon s body and therefore also the energy provision. Calcimar is therefore very important to stimulate digestion, metabolism and the moulting of the down feathers. Feed at a rate of 20 together with Grit Extra Available in 5 kg bags GRIT EXTRA WITH RED STONE Grit Extra is a mineral mixture consisting of seashell grit, red stone, stomach grit and oyster shell grit and is enriched with anise seed. Grit is incredibly important for the pigeon s digestion. Grit represents the pigeon s teeth. Plus Grit Extra is rich in calcium and magnesium and therefore plays a very important role in the development of the bones, the egg shells and the feathers.

42 42 On the road to success with Beyers

43 BEYERS GALAXY ARE YOU READY FOR THE FUTURE? Also during the quiet season, which is not really quiet for us because of all the shows and events, we at Beyers never sit back and we make an effort to continue developing. One of those developments is our Breeding Galaxy and after witnessing the amazing breeding results even at the high taxation of 5 or 6 rounds and the satisfied customer testimonials, we tried to translate the starting points of this mixture to a pair of mixtures for the racing season, Beyers Sport Light Galaxy and Beyers Sport Energy Galaxy. Together with our Beyers Plus RECOVERY and Beyers Plus CONDITION, both mixtures are successfully used for the recovery of and the training for a race. It is also recommended for the big marathon races to use Beyers Long Distance TT the last few days before basketing. But Beyers would not be Beyers if we were satisfied that the mixture looks good on paper and pretty in a bag. No, we need to witness that the mixtures deliver what we expected from them in practise and that is why these mixtures have been thoroughly tested. After the first tests in the lofts of Ulrich Lemmens (1st National Champion Heavy Middle Distance KBDB 2014) proved that we were on the right road, the test were expanded this year and the results are no less than stunning whereby we can already announce that these mixtures will be presented at the shows in the coming winter and will be available from your dealer next year! Some results from our test lofts: Partnership Faes-Wils from Mol (BE) are the major sensation of Antwerp in the heavy middle distance and long distance races recording four Provincial victories and a sensational result from National Montelimar. Montelimar Prov. 310 Yrls , etc. (13/28) Montelimar Nat Yrls , etc. (12/28) Montelimar Prov. 447 O.Bs (08/17) Montelimar Nat O.Bs (07/17) Bourges Prov O.Bs (07/09) Limoges Prov. 590 Yrls (02/02) Agen Prov. 413 Yrls. 4 (01/02) Tulle Prov. 853 Yrls (05/05) Gert Huysmans from Balen (BE) has been stunting since the beginning of the season and recorded no less than three Provincial wins. Vierzon Prov O.Bs (05/09) Vierzon Prov Yrls , etc. (15/26) Bourges Prov O.Bs (09/10) Bourges Prov Yrls , etc. (18/32) Ivo Renders from Geel (BE) weekly recorded top performances with his small team of birds from the heavy middle distance and long distance. Gueret Prov O.Bs (04/04) Gueret Nat O.Bs (04/04) Vierzon Prov Yrls , etc. (12/18) Bourges Prov Yrls , etc. (15/18) Ronny Menten from Rummen (BE) showed that class pigeons in combination with the Galaxy mixture were responsible for fireworks on a national level. He won: 1st, 6th and 7th Provincial Bourges against old birds (3rd, 17th & 18th National old birds), 1st & 4th Provincial Chateauroux against yearlings, 2nd, 18th and 25th Provincial Bourges against yearlings (4th National against Yrls.), 3rd and 4th Provincial Gueret against yearlings (4th and 5th National against Yrls.) and 5th Provincial Gueret against 857 old birds. Johny Jonckers of Drieslinter (BE) won this season a 2nd National Bourges against old birds, 6th National Bourges against yearlings and 6th National Montlucon against yearlings. Peter Stakenborg of Neeroeteren (BE) displayed that the Sport Light Galaxy is also an ideal mixture for his beloved sprint races. Chimay 152 km j.d , etc. (41/75) Chimay 152 km O.Bs , etc. (30/41) Chimay 152 km Yrls , etc. (20/28) Laon 219 km 581 O.Bs , etc. (25/39) Chimay 152 km 241 Yrls , etc. (20/30) Hans & Evert-Jan Eijerkamp of Brummen (NL) decided to test the Sport Light Galaxy for their widowhood hens and were extremely satisfied with the results in Brummen: NPO Bourges GOU Zuid b , etc. (25/38) NPO Gien GOU Zuid b , etc. (35/45) NPO Chateaudun GOU Zuid b , etc. (27/38) To make sure your pigeons can take advantage of the unique properties of our Galaxy mixtures all year round we of course have also developed a Moulting mixture in the Galaxy line. Beyers Moulting Galaxy is based on the same principles as the Galaxy breeding- and racing mixtures, but adapted to the needs of the moulting birds. On page 34 you will find more information about these premium mixtures. 43
