buster151 Posted May 24, 2013 Report Posted May 24, 2013 brilliant job and lofts well done :emoticon-0137-clapping:
showman Posted May 24, 2013 Author Report Posted May 24, 2013 How many birds are you looking to keep in each section? i,m always tempted by a drawer type style for cleaning out, so that it can be cleaned whilst the birds are still in the loft. :emoticon-0137-clapping: The YB loft will have perches for 24, and the OB loft will have 12 nest boxes. I'm thinking of 4 rows of 3, only a bit taller, so I can locate a 'shelf' in the box to site the 2nd nest bowl. Not sure......more thought needed !!I understand your thoughts regarding drawer type boxes and perches. Not really for me, my friend, as I prefer to have the birds standing on 'solid ground' not grilles or wire and then providing a block or similar for them to stand on.Cheers Alex, thanks for the comments, talk soon.
shugf2003 Posted May 24, 2013 Report Posted May 24, 2013 Cracking looking lofts the only negative i can see there doesn't seem to be any spaces at the back to remove stale air jmo
showman Posted May 24, 2013 Author Report Posted May 24, 2013 Cracking looking lofts the only negative i can see there doesn't seem to be any spaces at the back to remove stale air jmo Not fitted yet !! Need to fit perches and nest boxes in to see what space is left. I'm thinking of extractor fans in gable ends....again, more thought needed.

Sometimes I may not get things right, in other peoples' opinion, but in this instance, I don't think I'm too far off the mark !!Thanks again John, much appreciated.
