TheHigg Posted August 20, 2014 Report Posted August 20, 2014 Cheers lads for all the positive comments and well wishes. Really chomping at the bit and 2015 cant come soon enough so I can get racing! Yeah, I think thats a good idea. Will certainly add the mesh at the back and also the louvres at the front. Like you say better safe then sorry. Believe it or not I have taken down about 8 bushes/trees already. There are 2 more I can take down, the others are not on my property. I will try and accidentally damage some if possible in the coming months. But dont want to cause any bad feeling with the neighbors.

BIGPETE Posted October 4, 2014 Author Report Posted October 4, 2014 A little update for some more additions to the loft. Sorry been a while but crying baby and nagging missus don't help the cause Being a budget (no frills) loft they have scrimped on the timber on the floor and the felt on the roof. So I have put heavier felt up top and on the floor where they had thinner wood I have lashed down a load of 3/4" ply. Also a little tweak on the front edge behind the door, just raised that lip up an inch or 2 more so that the bedding won't fall out the doors so much... Have put up 24 perches in 2 of the sections. Nothing fancy just standard box perches, I know a lot of people prefer the lift off/easy clean boxes but being new to the game I can see the value of being able to see any problems with the droppings ASAP. (Picked up this little nugget when visiting Tony C's loft). Only planned on having 9 nest boxes, but these sets came up cheap from a guy packing up. Plan to only use the top 9 as the bottom 3 are a bit low for my liking also section a bit small to be housing 12. Again nothing fancy just batons run down between each set to give a little more privacy box to box and hopefully less fighting. Still doing some work on the stock loft (which was the main loft before) will post up pic's of that later. Next lot of mods to the loft will be the traps.
