why dont you buy a 6ft/4ft garden shed and turn it into a pigeon loft put a trap on it :)

easiest thing to do Rob is to buy a 6x4 or 8x6 shed and convert it.

 

I have a cracking shed the dog uses and its a day go by when i dont think it could make a cracking little loft for 10-15 babies.

 

sorry m8 i did not notic the you posted that

6 x 4 Garden sheds at B & Q i think £60 (ish) - Sure i see that in the Sun.

 

2 Louvre's for front = £7.00

 

2 x 2 wood for a small flight etc - £5.00

 

Rough full cost £72.00

 

Not including blocks for base etc etc as you can pick them up from just keeping eyes open

 

nice price for a pigeon loft plus you may find that fanciers will give you some feeders and drinkers you can get v shapes for £1 50 each with boddy and ridewood etc

go on freecycle in your area and ask if anyone as a shed they no longer want...its worth a try and it would be free

About the cheapest way to do this would be to make your own. You can use Sterling board as the walls and roof. And 3/4 plywood for the floor. Just make sure that you paint the Sterling Board well and it will last for Donkey's Years. I have built sheds and a pigeon loft from it and it is great. Best of all it is cheap.

Use an anti cat trap then you won't have to worry about leaving it open.
