AU 06 HANG 996 "Tex Rex" up to this point is the best flying bird ever for Lukens Loft.  He is also a producer of very strong and fast offspring.  In fact, he has the highest percentage of youngsters not getting lost in the loft.  He is strong, buoyant, and has killer eye sign.  He was a late hatch in 2006 and he started coming well towards the end of the young bird season.  That year he took 2nd at 236 miles.  In 2007 Old Birds he had a stellar year finishing 2nd at 205 miles, 1st at 236 miles, 1st at 295 miles, 2nd at 253 miles and won Bird of the Year Honors.  In 2008 he finished 1st at 177 miles in the club and the combine which had 634 birds and 46 lofts in that race.   He was the first combine winner for Lukens Loft.  In 2009 he was second at 112 miles.  He is now retired and enjoying the good life in the breeding loft.  T.Rex is out of a pair of birds I purchased from Red Rose Loft in Oregon  That pair are "Patriot Janssen's".  T. Rex is the only bird produced from that pair that won a race.
