The loft is still based on the strains of ‘Tieke’, ‘Bliksem’ and ‘Wittenbuik’. With the De Laere family, they never use anything else than the Röhnfried products, they use these for years and the results are always top, and what can a fancier want more? The Röhnfried system of the De Laere loft: During the moulting period, they use a lot of Taubengold, Hessechol, beer yeast and the Krauter mix (herbal mix). Another very important aspect here is that the pigeons receive fresh grit every day and this in combination with Leckerstein and Expert Minerals.
The preparation of the racing team – Every day again, the racing pigeons get Avidress Plus in the drinking water. From the beginning of February till and with the beginning of March Luc uses Hexenbier in combination with Usne Gano over the food, one week this is dried with Pavifac-beer yeast and the next week, he uses the herbal mix, Krauter Mix . In the month of April, the pigeons have to do their first short races and when they arrive home, they always find Mumm and BT Amin Forte in the drinking water. Again, he adds Usne Gano to the food and it’s dried with KrauterMix for the next three meals. On Tuesday and Wednesday he adds Avidress Plus in the water and Hexenbier to the food. Further along, when the distances become further (middle and heavy middle distance), from the month of May, the system is adjusted. Once the pigeons have to stay in the basket for two days, they receive at their arrival home a combination of BT Amin Forte + Mumm + Rotosal. If it’s necessary, they get this for about three drinking sessions. Then the food is moistened with Gervit W and Usne Gano and dried with KK protein powder , hereby the muscles recover faster and also this is done for about three meals. Next, they get H essechol and this is dried with the condition powder RO200. On the day of basketing, the pigeons receive Avipharm and according to the weather conditions, he also adds Rotosal . A tip for the youngsters With the young birds, he has very good experience with the product MOORGOLD, which is used from the moment they get weaned till the period when they are trained and this three times a week. The food is prepared the evening before so it can dry well to use the following day.
