MAGIC BLAUWE — BRED 1ST FEDERATION 2,526 BIRDS FROM HER FIRST NEST

Magic Blauwe bred a Federation winner from her first nest: 1st Club / 1st Federation Frome from 2,526 birds.

Blue Gaby Vandenabeele hen from Excelsior’s proven sprint family.

She is a full sister to “CHAMPION EDDY”, winner of 11 × 1st Club, 5 × 1st Federation in five different winds and West Midland RPRA Region Sprint Champion 2013.

The CHAMPION EDDY bloodline continues to produce: the same family has bred winners across the UK, including a 1st Open UK Premier One Loft Race winner in 2024 for £40,000. MAGIC BLAUWE therefore offers a direct sister to the family’s established sprint champion plus her own proven Federation-winning production.

Her sire line is through “THE MAGIC MAN”, responsible for at least 30 × 1st prize winners, while the dam “BRITVIC 55” is from the same successful Vandenabeele family.
