Enough room?


i was wondering if four feet by four feet would be enough to would about 16 birds. It will be about 6 feet tall. with a tall roof.

if it is enough room is it ok for the pigeons to fly above into the roof, which is about four feet or less high.

4 x 4 x 6 / 15 = 6.4

so if i did the math right that would house 6 pigeons

Four feet square seems a bit tight for that amount. If they were all on the floor at the same time, there would be one pigeon for every square foot.

How many square feet does each pigeon need?

I must agree with the other's answers. That many birds in that tight of an area would only result in unhappy and perhaps sick birds.
