alby28 Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 After being a member for quite a while,i have decided to take the plunge.My first hurdle is the loft itself,and was wondering where was the best or cheapest place to get a loft.Im located in North Manchester so would need to be local to keep delivery costs down.And probably looking at a budget or between £500 and a £1000 at a pinch.

alby28 Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Posted January 22, 2008 Well this is th eback garden to the property we are hoping to buy. It measures 85ft by 25ft ;D Mark
alby28 Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Posted January 22, 2008 Not much room then??? ;D ;D ;D Not if i wanted a 90ft loft ;D Mark
frank-123 Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 keep it on the left that big fir tree is a good place for the hawk to hide
carlsberg Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 plenty of decent loft manufacturers out there just depends on what size/style you want , if you want some birds aswell just let us know we'll sort some out
DOVEScot Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 It's a pity you could not build it yourself you could bo a cracking one with an £800 budget, the ones I seen at Blackpool for that money were poor quality or really small :-/
THE FIFER Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 that patch of green on the right would take a lovely loft, pity you were not at blackpool, saw a lovely 3 section one for £800 and something, but someone on here will keep you right, also a good joiner would nock you up one just give them some idea what you want, get a photo of one from someone,
Lennut Tar Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 Well this is th eback garden to the property we are hoping to buy. It measures 85ft by 25ft ;D Mark One could say, a nice little patch !!!!!, ;D ;D ;D I hope you are successful in your purchase of this property etc. Plenty of room there for what I see, many a winner has been bred in a much smaller yard/area than the above. It all depends on the attention, one is prepared to give the birds. Enjoy.
venus Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 i had pigeon all my life it hard work but fun
