sheds from the shed guy up the road from me and convert it into a loft.

 

it seems to me that most racing pigeon folks prefer the use of a storage shed and then convert it into a loft. i am new to this and if it works out  i will need to get a larger loft.

for those who purchased a pre constructed shed to convert into a loft, what where some key features you needed to have? style? height? width?

i know by looking at most pictures that the entrance doors where at the gable end.

here is a pic of one ..if the doors where on the gable end  it would work..

the picture would make a great loft but the main thing you would need in it is ventilation, false ceiling and partitions/sections for the birds as well as the normal nest boxes and perches.

I've heard a few people here recommend false ceilings.  What's wrong with the birds flying in the roofspace?

 

You need long arms to catch them.

how much  will it cost?

Can understand how a shape makes a difference in price  :-/ :-/

Size, and time must be the same reasoning regards costs.

  Can't also see why  - if one can afford to buy from the makers - how not just buying the  materials and doing it yourself is above many.... all have mates that can....

Personally I think a strutual frame made up... off ground. Vovered with a wire mesh, then just add plastic cladding or air vents.... or clip on so one can replace one with the other as weather / climat dictates.
