CLOSED ACTIVE AUCTION SILVER STAR & DIEPLAAGTE – 01 OCTOBER 2021 to 6 OCTOBER 2021 (20:00)
During the past two Carnival Lofts Summer Series SILVER STAR LOFTS in association with Dieplaagte-Sterkfontein Loft dominated both seasons with small teams of only two birds competing in the 5 Hot Spots and Final against much larger international teams.
In 2020 it achieved several top 10s in preliminary races including winning the Final by a nearly two hours lead with phenomenal 1st Ace ‘SILVER FLASH’; in 2021 it was the only team (with two cousins of ‘SILVER FLASH’ competing) that featured within the top 10 in 5 out of the last 6 races of the season with ‘2113’ ending as 5th Ace for 8th Final and 2x Equal 1st. In both seasons these pigeons achieved the highest exit prices on the Carnival Summer auctions. Both seasons were marked by extreme weather conditions with heat, rain and head winds.
Furthermore, Dieplaagte-Sterkfontein achieved equal wins at Bloemfonteik Central Finals two years in a row.
This auction presents a spread of SILVER STAR genetics (both OLR and Domestic Series) and a hand-picked Dieplaagte-Sterkfontein young bird.
SILVER STAR LOFTS again present a young full brother (LOT 1) of phenomenal ‘SILVER FLASH’ and the nestmate (hen) of one of our current Carnival Summer 2022 entries from the same family (LOT 2) selected as an ideal matched pair.
The breeder is confident that both will have significant impacts in any loft they go to. In addition, very few birds ever become available that can match the genetics revealed in the ‘FLASH Line’ pedigrees which include the incredible ‘Leonardo x Tinkelbel’ (Dijkstra, NL) super pair that has arguably been the highest impact pair in OLR history - also ‘Der Ringlozer12’ (Koopman-Prange, DV) unquestionably the best breeder in German history and a concentration of supreme international champions in all competition forms over the past two decades.
