Remodeling Loft


I Am Going To Remodel My Loft So You Guys Can See The Before And After. Due To The Budget I Had Before It Look Kind Of Bad Not That Pleasing To Eye. I Have One Question Where Do I Place The Ventilation So Theres Mno Drafts The Loft Is 6x8x8 And Is Raised Two Feet Off The Ground And The Floor Is Plywood.right Know I Have 13 Pigeons 6 Breeders And The Rest Youngbirds They All Fly Together For At Least One Hour Daily.i Want To Keep These Pigeons That I Have Know But I Want To Get Good Stock So I Can Compete In The Club. Do Any Of You Guys Know Were I Can Get Good Stock For A Cheap Price Maybe From One Of The Members Or Someone.i Dont Know Any Of My Birds Background So Dont Know If They Are Good Blood.

Hi Lefty,

As for the ventilation in the loft you want to for one, make sure you have plenty of it, and second that at no time will the birds be in a direct draft.

As for the good stock birds. I found something today you might be interested in. I have 5 breeder pair from some of Randy Hills, Hillsfamilyloft's best stock. Because of space the breeders are still together and when they lay I put wooden eggs under them. One of Randy's breeder pairs found a place to hide and Today I found a pair of about four or five day old babies. I will band them in a day or two. If you want them and are willing to pay for the box & shipping ( about $45.00) I will send them to you when they are ready.
