Hi Ali! I hope all is good at your end! In my opinion the ‘Rabbit Hutch’ loft system is brilliant and I really enjoyed racing to it. It’s great for the birds and the fancier. Thanks for your interest! Good luck mate! Regards - Keith
Hi Mate! The reason for having the ‘rabbit hutch’ loft in the beginning was because I had ‘pigeon fanciers lung’ and couldn’t go in a closed in loft. As time went on I realised what a great way it was to keep and race the birds too. I raced long distance on a normal natural system and won many premier positions in National and Classic races. I had six section for old birds and two for the youngsters. I think the main thing was it was stress free for the birds living in separate boxes. I bred the dam of a 1st open International winner and a 2nd National winner and they were both born in the ‘Rabbit Hutch’ loft. There is a more detailed article on my ‘Rabbit Hutch’ loft system on my website. Thanks for your interest! Regards to you and your family.
@@mandydorpinghaus3389 Hi Mandy! I hope all is good at your end! I did race natural to the ‘rabbit hutches’, but had a little open loft for a couple of pairs of stock birds and a small team of young birds. Thanks for your interest!
Hi Markye! If go on to my website: www.keithmott.com and look at the 1997 section in 'Personal History' all the details are in there. Thanks for your interest! Regards - Keith.
I have recently built a couple of rabbit hutch type lofts for my stock birds, any tips on keeping the birds calm because the seem to become stressed on times confined in the smaller area. Any help would be much appreciated
In the traprain club not raced yet all ready though having to create a section for young birds and maybe a big rabbit hutch for a couple of breeding pairs of stock all the best for now
