DV-6603-26-7, bred by Tim Rutkowski, combines Herbots ace-pigeon quality with a maternal family delivering notable one-loft race results. A major selling point is its full sibling, 06603-26-8, which achieved 47th in Final 1 of Derby AviRings against 1,790 pigeons over 501 km—direct performance evidence from the same parental pairing.

The sire is “Blue Lagoon” (BE-2024-2117370), bred by Herbots Brothers and recorded as DNA certified. His offspring also include “Balian”, 06603-25-76, winner of 21st at HotSpot 4 of the Algarve Pigeons Golden Race against 5,439 pigeons over 239 km. Balian shares the offered pigeon's sire; its dam is not identified in this pedigree.

Blue Lagoon brings together two distinguished performers. The paternal grandfather, recorded as “All Time OLR Champ”, won 1st in the WDW OLR final and 1st Ace Pigeon WDW OLR. The paternal grandmother, “Olympic 005” (BE-2019-2131005), achieved 2nd World Best Pigeon, middle distance, and 2nd Olympic Ace Pigeon, middle distance, 2021. Her branch traces directly through “Zo.Orange King” to “Orange King” and “Power Stoces”, providing a clearly documented Herbots family connection.

The dam, “Flora” (DV-2024-6603-798), is a daughter of “Rolls Royce” × “Thesa”, described in the pedigree as “The New Dreamteamcouple”. Both grandparents are recorded as parents of 06603-25-79, which achieved 9th in Final Race 1 of Derby AviRings Pro against 1,034 pigeons over 508 km, finishing as the first German pigeon. This performer is therefore a full sibling to Flora and offers further evidence of the maternal pairing's breeding strength.

Thesa is also recorded as a sister to “Theseus”, which finished 4th in the 2020 SAMDPR South Africa final against 1,548 pigeons over 600 km, again as the first German pigeon. Behind Rolls Royce stand the Neuhaus & Sohn birds “Hugo Boss” and “Black Pearl 134”, with further ancestry bred by Günter Prange and Wolfgang Roeper. Thesa's branch adds R. Püttmann through “Hurrican Junior” and K. H. Spiecker through “Schecki”. An appealing pedigree for buyers seeking a combination of close-family one-loft performance and accomplished Herbots ancestors.
