Hello I am new to the pigeon world and could use some help. I have started work on plans for a coop it is small but I am just starting out It is 4' Wide X 4' tall and 4' deep with a 3' aveary on the front. I hann't got my birds yet but will start off with 4 birds. Any help would be great:cool:

Welcome to PT. What exactly do you need/want help with? There's a TON of information on this site, but someone will gladly answer your questions. Just ask away.
What kind of birds are you getting? I've got a small ex-chicken coop the same size. 4 x 4 x 4.......I tried keeping 4 birds in it at one time (2 mated pairs) and it worked out ok....but wasn't ideal. It's PERFECT for one pair of birds though. I also have an 4 x 8 aviary attached to it. 3 feet isn't real big for an aviary and 4 birds.
You may want to make it bigger, If you happen to get a pair in there, they will want to nest and the cock bird will be protective. if you just want 2 as pets I think it would be fine, but you would'nt want them to hatch any babies and run out of room...:)
I am new also to this forum thing as well is there a link that will explain how to do things like posting messages and pictures

I see you've posted some pictures, so I assume you figured that part out. Here's the link to you pictures

That is fine with me measurement wise, but from experience you will end building another one because you might fall in love with these birds and you want them to have babies. Or you can start now by building 4' x 8' x 6' starter loft. It is your call. Build now or later. Either way it is better than cages.
