west facing loft

[simon9]

hi happy new year to everybody.i have a west facing loft due to available space at home.but the lads in my local club reckon i have no chance of any success facing west.just wondered if everybody agrees?cheers

Never heard of this before. Heard not to face north though? Due to cold north winds blowing straight into loft. And guess where mines faces....North lol   :o ??)

Due South is the best.

Matters nowt, nice to be south facing but in summer lofts can get too warm. My stock lofts were facing west and they used to get the last sunlihgt of the day, handy in the winter.

doesnt matter which way your loft faces m8...at my old address mine faced north..i had 22 wins to it with old birds in 7 years...at my new address now just started back up again last year 08..2nd race 1st club 9th fed...5000 birds... plus it was good last summer it wasnt red hot in the loft..

my old loft faced west but was shielded from the west wind by the house never thought it meant allot my new loft faces south and i think the birds come into condition allot better and the sun is on the nest boxes all day good for the y/birds  yes i think it does matter but if its all youve got you have to make the best of it
