that all depends on how many boxes your making a sheet of chipboard is 8ft x 4 ft and the 3/4 inch thickness is the best as doesnt warp as much

The lovely thing about pigeons is that they do not judge or critisise. Do the best you can and they will love them. The more they are made to be shoved in anywhere the more the pigeons will like them. Try to make them easy for you to keep clean but after that any shape or size will do. And if you run out of time or find you are struggling use cardboard boxes. Just put some plywood on the bottem to aid in cleaning side of things. Pigeons love dark corners and secret places.

Not a problem at all to make yourself.......depends what sort of front you want, make your box accordingly.SIMPLES !!

Mark, didn't see the original thread, good job, well done.  

 

I think making most things yourself is a lot of the fun attached to just keeping pigeons.

with pre made boxes you get what comes and as im 6ft 4 i want them to be higher and fit the space snuggly then end job better for me and to look at imo , and besides much cheaper to make your own than buy

i agree....the only thing to watch is to spend good money on materials...not get what you want and then have to turnaround and spend again.
