Crazy Al: Crazy Al did not start into pigeons as a young man, as so many do. In fact he was well into his 40’s before he became interested in this fascinating sport. But his enthusiasm has driven him to accomplish more in 15 years than most. He has researched the pigeons, the lofts, the medications, the feeds and nutrients and the light and dark systems. He has traveled to Belgium, Germany, England, China, South Africa and other places to discuss birds and look for quality breeders. He has used his knowledge of genetics (learned from raising and breeding tropical fish) to breed families of pigeons. And his successes in futurity races have proven he is on the right track!

The Jones Boys: In 1961 my Dad and I joined the Wings Club, which is part of the Great Salt Lake Combine in Salt Lake City, Utah. We flew under the name of “The Jones Boys” until 1973 when I acquired my present home and where Dad and I built what we fondly called the “pigeon condo”. This is where all of the Jones Boys’ pigeons are bred. We then flew under our separate names from 1973 to 1992, at which time the ”ultimate” happened, my son Ryan acquired his present home and we built him his racing loft as well. From 1992 to 1999 The Jones Boys were known as the “3 Generation Jones Boys”. We flew in our combine as “1st Generation”, 2nd Generation”, and “3rd Generation Jones Boys” accordingly.

Danny Hutchins: Hutchins Loft is proud to be a part of the Rock Falls Auction. I have been blessed in the pigeon sport. In only 9 years, I have bred 2 Texas Center Hall of Fame winners, and 1 AU President's Award. Three years out of the nine years, I won Champion Bird, Champion Loft, and Champion Speed back to back, old and young birds,. In 2006, I joined the Denton Racing Pigeon Club with some of the (in my opinion) best top flyer's in the United States for which my birds won Champion Bird, Loft and Speed again. And in the same year with my old birds, they won Champion Speed taking 1,2,3,5, & 6 on the 600 mile race. Also, in old birds 2006, they won first place in the 400, 500, and 600 mile race. My birds are out of the best quality I can find. I call them Hutchins birds because for 9 years, I have bred the best to the best and I line breed each family, then cross these birds to my best. I can't explain my breeding method, but it works for me. Last year, my Hutchins bred birds that won, won over $200,000 in prize money. These birds have won money every year since 2001. My first year in the pigeon sport was 2001. I flew my first one-loft race at the Vegas Classic with Ed Sittner. I was blessed to have won 21st place, Please consider my Hutchins Family of birds at the Rock Falls Auction,.
