Do You Need A Humidifier For A Ball Python

disillusionment

have in the last week I tried something out for me. How does the breeders when they tried to blunt a mirror house? What if you once protested loudly and clearly formulated positions.

were my positions:
1) The receipt of the pigeon sport is the ultimate goal which is meaningful to classify all the changes and adjustments need.

2) For the analysis and performance review annually by the Association are appropriate analytical data on structural members, members of the sensitivities and the development levy and to publish in detail.

3) animal welfare is the second standard by which all changes must be measured!

4) may at all attractive championships at every level by larger teams, as well as possible, be no greater opportunity. Smaller teams and resources should therefore similar (not better!) Opportunities to Erin narrowing of championships have.

5) farmers need more freedom in choosing the flights, which they want to attend!


And I asked the readers of this blog, refer to this as a commentary position. Although there were probably also "technical" problems for individual leave your comments, as told to me by email. Nevertheless, only 4 comments came together!

This last blog post was then recorded nearly 500 visits. These were approximately the half of the visits, the setting is usually when I farmed, or like last time, write about Beifuttermittel.

In the packed Internet Forum Internet pigeon I have tried in parallel with a clear positioning for a few in my view, fundamental problems with provocative formulations produce a reaction. I have not quite unintentionally loudly and vigorously "beat about the bush" do as I was reading the reaction of the breeders were very interested.

is referring to breeders at all will position, whether for or against? We can
for years watching the slow death of our hobby. Once proud clubs are orphaned and are increasingly talking only of individual members, RVen the past hundreds of members, its own Kabi and a large hall could use, today are faced with the task to create a new Kabi, as the old modern emissions requirements are not met, overwhelmed.

The group with the highest proportion in the once-breeders to the 40-50 year olds (1982, over 30%!) Is today only in fourth place (with roughly 12%) far behind the group of 60-70 year olds ( with over 30%) and the 50-60 age group and even the group behind the 70-80 year olds! Roughly 30 years ago, the group of 30-40 year olds were still in front of these groups, and today's leading group of 60-70 year olds was in fourth place!

Each year, the Association loses because of the age structure of roughly 5% its members. And he wins parallel hardly add new breeders.

In today the largest regional association in Germany, we are currently at 17 RVen just about 40 registered breeders who are under 24 years! At present there still traveling roughly 800 shots, these are just 5%! Of these young people are a few sure once their professional existence is secured (usually just between the ages of 30-50) the pigeon racing will continue intensively.

But can and do we really imagine that in this future (ie, in roughly 15 years) on an area of 70 x 70 km, there are only 20-30 breeding at the age of roughly 40 years (do not make it so All these young people more later)? Among them will be the same age distribution as now joined again 200-250 older breeders, and that's it!

And yet the most members in the Region of Germany, as measured by traveling shock! So how then, are organized under these conditions in areas where the number of breeders is already much lower, even a reasonably fair and interesting pigeon racing?

Earlier strongholds of the pigeon sport among many others were in urban areas. Roughly 85% of Germany's population lives in cities! But today there are hardly any cities in the pigeon breeders. The vast majority of rural lives. Can we afford
we really want to pursue our hobby so that we achieve 85% of the population barely so (see point 4 of the above requirements)?



If all this is not dramatic, then I do not know what can still be dramatic in terms of the German pigeon racing.



And exactly why I was very excited to see the reactions on my part would be quite provocative incursions. Can today actually remain quiet in view of the situation?
And the worst of all possible for me earlier versions arrived:

The all-all-most breeders do not respond! Neither for nor against it! And I was very provocative. I was already too far away, so that my remarks did not want to take it seriously? I think this is not enough.

read between the lines of other contributions of that Forum, I blame the direction: Stifft
-unrest-
premature to radical reforms
-to poor representation of the actual situation
go-to gloomy prognosis
.

And in other posts I think the same criticism at distant enemies, such as "the Association", "the General Assembly", "the commerce ",...



is Nothing, absolutely NOTHING to the current situation change for the better if we are not aware about it at first, who then bears the responsibility of this whole mess really? Who Meisterschaftsmodi
defined in the RVen and RegVs? Who agrees
off on flight schedules, travel direction and cooperation with other organizations?
Who wants to retain his composure and prefer the good old days back?
Who is the own travel service more important than winning the concerns new members?

We all, at all levels who have some responsibility to the misery.

The old saying that the fish First stinks at the head is true.
But we must not herein the word FIRST overlooked. The timing of this "first" is back for decades. Today, the whole fish stinks at every single bone!

We will continue, as well as in the past are useless, only to "this or that" lamb to animals themselves but to no change in their own environment to be ready. Who acts so is itself an essential accomplice in the decay of our sport!

I do not do mischief still stirring things simply. But I want to have a realistic chance in 10 to 20 years to pursue this wonderful hobby more meaningful manner, without I have to emigrate to Holland!

change still hurts too! And they will never take place without conflicts! But is a gradual peaceful death really a better alternative?
