TRAVELER is bred from the excellent pigeons of several fantastic fanciers.  His father is bred down from the GOOD YEARLING of Ad Schaerlaeckens 5 times!  His father's pedigree also includes DE AUTO, a fantastic racer winning 48 prizes and an automobile.  Finally, his father includes the Janssens from Rene Truyen who received them directly from the Janssen Brothers.  Traveler's mother is bred from the excellent pigeons from Antoine Jacops including the JEF, a 2-time 1st prize winner in the Antwerp Union, the SUPER ACE, a 2-time 1st Middle Distance Ace in the very tough Hafo Lier Club in the Antwerp Union, and the DIAMOND ACE, a long distance Ace in the Antwerp Union in 1992.  As his pedigree empirically verifies, TRAVELER is bred-down from some of the very best pigeons in Belgium and Holland.
