Good stuff I say . All those boxes but some still prefer laying on the floor etc.

Nice one David, nice to see other peoples birds, and their breeding setups, I'll try and get skywalker to do one for us and get it up on the forum, maybe other members would do the same

yes it would be nice lofty......ive a few more to put up when I get spare time..

I'll see if we can get it done over the weekend David, Luke is working early and finishing late at the minute so it's difficult through the week, but I'll get his arse in gear over the next couple of days

All looking good David I like the Red Cheq mate

that's the mother (when paired to the cock attacking my hand) to the 2 ybs which won £500 last season don...they are janssens.

Very nice dave all look content and happy I notice you don't have fronts on your boxes how do you keep them in when pairing up

when I made the nest boxes I bought new widowhood fronts mark, but never bothered to fit them........the birds I put into that shed were previously paired up to each other so it was more or less a matter of just letting them choose a box each.

ive never bothered fitting the fronts as I find it easier to scrape out without them, plus the birds seem to like it that way...

I see dave thought at first you might have taken out the blocks for the fronts but that would be a pain every year

nah mark, just never got round to fitting them , then decided it was ok without them........I bought blue and yellow , leeds utd colours too.......

Leeds supporter through and through even in the pigeon loft

.very good but why no fronts my man

Have one loft with 18 boxes. Open fronts. 6 are being used. rest empty. 6 laying on floor in shavings. Was it not Old Hand years ago di away with nest boxes and his pairs laid on the floor in sand?

im thinking of removing all my other fronts in the other sections, it makes it a lot easier to clean out ....
