How it all began

In the years 1966/67 was, as is often the case at that time, started with pigeons of sports fans from their own club. A special role is played the selfless promotion of the then top breeders and judges Adolf and Rudi Scholl. Already in 1974 the gold medal was won and good results are achieved from over 100 breeders of RV Schweinfurt, including the 1st RV championship 1982. Also on KV and the District 28 could place well already. The travel direction was south-east with final flight Budapest 725 km, later Kormarno 635 km.

Over the following years worked continuously on improving the pigeons portfolio through the purchase or exchange with very good traveling shock.

With the professional learned Qualitätsakrebie, Edwin was until his retirement in 2003 worked in quality assurance, he has his inventory built up over the years. By doing so, a consistent top blow was built over the years who claims year after year at all levels and from different travel directions.

The pigeons

A major factor in this success have acquired since 2002 pigeons by Manfred Tihen, Peter Staude, Kurt Augustin, Erwin Rienecker, SG Endres from Forchheim, Walter Hroneck from Bad Nauheim and Dieter Brich, is the for a business trip in 1977, a long-standing friendship.

„For the honest operation by these sports fans, who served me with the best of their breeding lofts, I want to thank you very much on this path "So Edwin Augsburger summarizes his positive experiences. This is not self-evident!

From 2012 pigeons from August Jansen, Leo Heremans and Maurice Hasendonckx were successfully integrated into the stock on Bruno Escherich. These imported pigeons have shown in junction with the by then already successful pigeon stock again an extra boost.

An impressive example is the first RV-AS-female 05072-14-1761. She flew 11 prices and 1,025.72 points already shone in 2016 with premium prices and flew 11 prices 713.20 AS-points. Highlight with the price first, 19th and 3rd and the last three RV. Regional flights! Direct sister 05072-14-2005 was in 2017 with 925.94 points 2. As-AS-female of the RV. (Blood guide L.

Supply and travel method

The winter population amounts to 90 to 100 pigeons, including 25 pairs for breeding.

is traveled with 50 pigeons after the total widowhood of a self-built blow garden. The year-olds are set to the final race over 600 km away.

In January, the vaccination of pigeons against Paromyxovirose done. Preventive treatments there are none.

Dr. Fernand Marien supervised the stock from a veterinary point of view, and only when detects something in his investigations acted naturally. An all-season mix of fruit vinegar, garlic, red onions, beets and carrots will accompany enough to keep trichomoniasis and intestinal parasites at bay.

After returning from the flight HN - milk powder dissolved (medicinal food for Baby`s) by the company Humana in water, tied with condition powder to the food and with red mineral quenched (both products of Dr. Mary) and fed the pigeons..

Tolliamyn Forte and Quick, products of Dr. Vet. Schröder, complete the building program for the races are.

"When feeding I've used a variety of species. I am convinced by the BEYERS. mixtures offered Zoontjes Yellow, brain 1 and 3 brainWho came in the success of 2017 only by us for use " Erwin reported.

"Hemp, peeled sunflower and corn was fed to the flights over 400 km" is completed. The watering is filled with clean water. otherwise the pigeons take on too little water. Therefore, additives are served only in the diet, "said Edwin Augsburger tells of his long experience.

For their own use about 80 young are drawn. The breeding and racing pigeons are bred to February 20 of the year.

"When applied dry manure method, the pigeons read from a weak immune system itself. Is helped in no case with drugs, even if the boys coming from the best sires " says Edwin.

Also in the breeding loft of year-Mix comes two times a week for use.

Of proven breeders, the first clutch at the pigeons and the second clutch is placed under some Ammenpaaren. The third nest, they pull up themselves. In this way there is the possibility to pair the best birds and females several times. From the best racers a scrim is drawn to see early who is suitable for breeding.

finally

We give Edwin Augsburger the word: “Ich meine, dass unsere Leistungen des Reisejahres 2017 im Reg.-V. 750 oder auf Verbandsebene, trotz bestem Taubenmaterial, kaum zu wiederholen oder gar zu steigern sein werden. Durch die Grösse des Reg-V. 750, mit einer Ausdehnung von 100 x 80 km, sind bei stetigem Süd-West Wind die südlich und östlich gelegen Schläge doch sehr benachteiligt (in 2017 11 von 13 Flüge). Eine faire Leistungsverteilung ist so nicht mehr möglich und die Züchter brechen die Reise ab oder, was viel schlimmer ist, sie sagen unserem schönen Taubensport „Tschüß, Ade und Servus„.

One problem, which now have very many regional associations and become a factor threatening the existence of the German pigeon sport. "
