Simeon Turner Posted August 18, 2007 Report Posted August 18, 2007 I would always try to keep it as natural wood if possible (the Janssen way) this lets the wood breath. - If I was to paint the loft, I would paint it a shade of red (Red Cedar) this apparantly has a calming influence on the birds (alot of poultry farmers use it to prevent fighting and plucking).
THE FIFER Posted August 18, 2007 Report Posted August 18, 2007 the best paint for inside loft is MAISONARY paint, it dries quick and has no smell. and you get it in white, sand or grey which is good for inside loft, also it fills in any cracks, i used it once on my landing board, put the paint on and when still wet sprinkle sand on it,

Plenty of nasonary paint so might use that, cheers, But due to chickadees standards there will be no cracks, she gets enough of them from Tammy and Sammy, the crackpot twins ;D ;D ;D
DOVEScot Posted August 18, 2007 Author Report Posted August 18, 2007 If chickadee wants the job done properly she be better of doing it herself ;D ;D ;D True, but that's what she has me for, it's just got to pass her quality control ;D ;D ;D
