yes, sounds about right to me if you want the smallest size.....just try a nest bowl in to check.

just a thought mate but when your birds have young in the nest some hens dont want to lay their eggs in the same bowl, and they will lay again before the ybs leave the nest.the clay nest bowls are 9 inch and i always like a nest box to be a size where i can put another bowl in if i need to, 20 inch x 15 inch would be my minimum as you dont want ybs falling out of the nest onto the floor they will get scalped by the older birds or injured. jmo atb

Totally agree, i actually made a set 28 x 15 and a set 28 x 12 ( to get an extra 2 boxes )
Having just recently bred in the 28 x 12 boxes i was still able to put 2 nest bowls in comfortably.

Yobleb, where in Blackburn are you from?
I'm new to pigeon racing so cant really learn you anything but your more than welcome to pop round matey, anytime Very Happy
