i use to race out of a garden shed when i was 13 to 15 and i won a few club races just bein 21 now i would have liked to make a loft but i have a son now so i thinking of a garden shed lol

[grizzal]

a garden shed is fine m8,take the top bit of wood at the back out

and put wire along it [air vent],at the front where the window is

take out and put a sputnic trap and at the bottom cut 2 12x6 holes

and put plastic vents over the top,depends on the size if you have a corridoor

and sections plus put a vent on each side at the top.

inside nestboxes or boxperches [jmo]

also make sure is on blocksof the ground

i no flyers that have a clear roof made from strong plastic and there raceing went down hill specially with there cocks being able to see other birds outside and sitting on roof then when they went back to normal roof results started to come back but all to you own

 

all the best

you could have all clear just depends on what you want ,too much heat can cause problems so id go for part 1/3  of roof and a system where can shut it out with sliders if gets too hot
