Could you send me these sketches to give me a idea of what single boxes.

Thanks Pompey Mick. could i have a close up and also a view of the inside of the trap, and photo of the inside layout to your loft.

Here is a lay out of my garden and where i want to put my loft/coop its between my kitchen wall and shed wall roughly 4 foot gap

What does that do? As i said never had pigeons before, thats why im posting so many questions.

The shed that is there isnt ideal for birds not even safe to be in just moved to my current house, so all rubbish is in there and door is nailed shut for safety reasons. I have room for a smaller loft measuring 4ft long by 3 foot wide and 6ft tall, but again not much room to stand in.

Hi Ghettostar i was looking to build 3x3 and a different design to those to of yours.

Hi im in process of planning my coop im going for the rabbit hutch style coop overall size would be 3ft x 3ft i will only house one pair in here just for my own enjoyment and because i have a small garden. I hope no one minds but i have create this thread of my build so i can put all my question on one thread, im totally new to pigeons never ever had them before so bear with me. It will have a battan frame and ply back, top and bottom now the sides of the Coop i could do with ply obviously but i was thinking of ventalition and thought that i could use say 2inch wood and space them out leaving a half inch gap as to create good ventalition and stop rodents getting in?

Thanks Ghettostar, Im still in the planning stage haven't actually built the coop yet, im going for the rabbit hutch style coop because i have a small garden and i do have a brick 8ft by 7ft shed but its damp inside and full of rubbish plus i dont want to be inside a loft with the pigeons with the risk of pigeon lung, so by doing the rabbit hutch style it would me being in the open when attending the pigeons. Not sure on overall size of the coop yet only want one big enough for a pair to enjoy them.

Yeah thats what i was thinking a smaller one would be enough.

The size coop im going for a 4ft long, 2ft wide and 4ft tall, just enough room for a pair and enjoy in my garden. I dont want to over complicate the coop because im no carpenter.

Thanks Andy, Been thinking whether or not its best to have a self kind of platform for the pigeons to land on and go through the trap or whether to have the sputnik with the platform and trap and the small avairy. The though of just having a platform and trap was so i could hinge the platfrom/self so it could close up and act as a cover for the trap? Hope that makes some sence Hi tooshy boy just for my own enjoyment dont plan on racing.

Hi Guys hope i dont make myself sound stupid here but here goes, My Question is; the front of my coop i dont know what to do with the landing platform or cage not sure what you actually call it like the entrance to the loft in and out? Can anyone post pics of what i should build.

Thanks for the great answers.

What do you need inside the loft, what should the layout be? Any pictures?

Cracking loft!! I like it alot!
