NL-2026-8120427 is a hen combining close-family one-loft racing success with the Paarsborst and Paulien families. A daughter of “AVI 125” × “Black Purple”, she is a full sister to two notable final performers:

  • 9th against 753 pigeons in the 500 km OLR Zagreb Final, 2025—a demanding race recorded at 922 m/min, with only 32 pigeons arriving on the first day.
  • 16th against 1,034 pigeons in the 509 km OLR AviRings Final Race 1, 2025.

These full-sibling performances are a central attraction: both parents are independently recorded as sire and dam of these finalists. The offered hen also has her own AviRings results, including 154th against 1,160 pigeons in Final R2 and 275th against 1,790 in Final R1.

Her sire, “AVI 125” (NL-2023-9311125), bred by Paul van den Berg, recorded 68th against 1,321 pigeons in the 400 km AVI semi-final and 33rd in the 607 km AVI Derby Race. His dam, “Sister Paulien” (NL-2016-1383373), bred by Comb. Baas & Berg, was herself 85th National Pau ZLU in 2020 and is a full sister to “Paulien,” 1st National and 1st International Pau 2020. This is a documented collateral connection to Paulien, not a claim of direct descent from the winner.

The dam, “Black Purple” (NL-2023-9635437), is a half-sister to “Athos,” 17th in the demanding 605 km SAMDR Final in 2014, and to “Purple Rain.” Through her father, “Son Paarsborst,” the offered hen is a great-granddaughter of Ko van Dommelen’s “Paarsborst” (NL-2003-0326801), winner of 1st National Dax ZLU 2006 and 1st National Lourdes 2005. This branch also records Paarsborst paired to a daughter of Euro Diamond, while Black Purple’s dam brings the explicitly recorded 300 / Harry lines of Poelstra & Znn / Hooymans.

A compelling pedigree offering: strong full-sibling OLR final results backed by established national and international distance-racing families.

Paul van den Berg has produced repeated top performances in the AviRings Derby series, highlighted by 3rd/973 from Tarnazsadany 320 km in 2022. His pigeons also scored 8th/1,379 over 367 km in AviRings Derby 2024 and 8th/1,034 in the 509 km AviRings Derby PRO 2025 Final Race 1, with a second pigeon 16th in the same final. Further standout results include 12th/1,646 in AviRings Derby 2023 Race 2, 18th/1,321 in the 2023 Semi-final, and 23rd/602 in the 2022 final over 521 km. In the overall standings, he achieved 7th in Total Flight Time at AviRings Derby 2022 and 77th Ace Pigeon at AviRings Derby PRO 2025, confirming consistent quality across several seasons.
