The famous Janssen and Van Loon families with many super performers in competition around Australia and our Euro Performance collection with  famous Euro lines of Gaby Vandenabeele and Gerard Koopman that have been and are currently winning across Australia and the globe. 
On Now & Ends Sunday 20 October-SAHPA Long Distance Club Fundraiser sale, final auction of the year.  Some top birds on offer from some of SA's very best Long Distance fanciers.  Details of Birds>>



The Glendambo Open event was held on 27 July the first official SAHPA race of the season towards the overall pointscore.  Our lofts had some magnificent results again with our birds gaining the first 3 prizes and an outstanding 10/30 entries placing in the first 25 birds against 2271 birds covering the 492 km in 7 hrs and 20 mins with the winning velocity 1119mpm.
The first 3 birds are below, with the winner "Maeve" being bred by our Melbourne based partner Geoff Jackson and is from a cock bird we loaned him that was co-bred with the Pedavoli Bros being a double grandson of the famous G Hamilton ace hen Good as Gold being from a half-brother x sister pairing, with her dam being from J Ennis bred direct from top Eijerkamp imports down from Olympic Hans and New Che, this hen had already placed 7th from Stirling Nth earlier in the season.  The 2nd placed bird 311 BCH also previously placing and is bred from ace producers Roxy (Angus x Sally) and Bonnie our No 1 stock hen and already dam of 3 SAHPA winners  including one this year. The 3rd placed bird is super hen 9288 DCH her 4th place in the top 8 in 4 races this season, a daughter of top racer The Dark Knight a grandson of aces Lachlan and Erin, with her dam being a direct daughter of ace imports Angus & Erin.  A really pleasing day out..



Races 6 & 7 of the SAHPA season was a double header from the NE line Yunta 237 km to our loft and Bookaloo 330 km to our loft. We achieved some amazing results in both races.  In the Yunta race we landed 3 young cock birds taking 2nd, 3rd & 4th in the SAHPA Open competition against 1485 birds, with the winner living over 90 km from our lofts so an excellent result.  The Bookaloo race took a little longer than expected and we got the SAHPA SDC win in this race with 2 yo hen "Aphrodite" becoming the 3rd SAHPA winner from the super pair "Lachlan & Bonnie", the loft was in great form on the day with us also taking a further 7 positions in the top 20 open competition against 2101 birds, with one hen 9288 placing for the 3rd time in the top 10 this season alone. Here are some of the prizewinning birds:









Race 1 of the SAHPA season saw some top results from our loft.  Taking the first 6 positions in the Open SAHPA competition against 1298 birds from Stirling Nth 250 km.  Our winning bird "Lady" being a daughter of Duchess the ace racing and breeding hen from Greg Hamilton.  Of our first 6 birds, 5 have a very heavy influence of our top Leo Heremans birds, with 4/6 closely related to champion hen Erin. 
Race 2 of the SAHPA season saw a great result for our loft.  Taking the first 10 positions in the Open SAHPA competition against 1837 birds from Stirling Nth No 2 250 km.  Below are our top 7 birds for the first two weeks, this weeks winner "Eve" SA 23 257 BBH is a daughter of Lachie 1st SAHPA Pimba 2023 against 2872 birds (son of Lachlan x Bonnie) & Bloom 5th SAHPA Glendambo YBC 2022 & 6th SAHPA Bookaloo 2023, Eve is their first baby raced.  The other 6 hens below are all 2 year olds and have placed in the first 8 in both races to start the season.
