Rutz und Söhne (Altheim) Continuing to shine on the German national races 1st National Narbonne yearbirds 2024

The Rutz & Söhne combination consists of the twins Sven and Jens. The entire care of this marathon colony falls on their shoulders. Not easy if you know that both have a job with a lot of responsibility and this combined with a family life. But the Rutz family, just like their pigeons, are known for their perseverance, their motivation to go to extremes and both Sven and Jens discuss their busy schedules on a daily basis so that one of them can still keep control of the loft. And if neither of them can spare the time, they know there is still plenty of care because thanks to the automation of the lofts, they can be opened and closed automatically. An equivalent system is equipped at the feeders. These can be filled with the right mixture in terms of quantity and composition and thanks to the automation the pigeons always get their food at the same time, have enough time to eat and the feeders are closed again. With good planning, this system works perfectly, as the results prove. 

‘Angelina’

When our marathon champions have to designate a stock pigeon they do not hesitate for a second and put the stock card of ‘Angelina’ on the table. ‘Angelina’ DV09788-93-567 is long gone but it is remarkable how she runs like a “red thread” through the entire pedigree of the Rutz colony. Her father was an original Stichelbout pigeon, while her mother was of the noble Cattrys breed. Proof of her strong breeding power is that ‘Angelina’ appears in the pedigree of national Tarbes winner 2022 (DV0709-20-67) both along the paternal and maternal sides. Her sire is ‘Princ Blade’, 0709-14-146, a son of ‘Barcelona Princess’, who flew 1st National Barcelona in 2008. Her mother is ‘Miss Arona’, 0709-16-1731. She is a combination of the pigeons of Rutz & Söhne and Freialdenhoven & Söhne, and thus also the very best long-distance blood.
