  • In this video "How to build a pigeon loft (maintenance free) for Racing pigeons, roller pigeons, and other breeds" I am building a new pigeon loft with special attention to reduced care and upkeep of the loft itself. Weather you have racing pigeons, Birmingham roller pigeons, or fancy pigeon breeds your workload can be reduced with this pigeon loft design. I hope it will be helpful and at least give some ideas while building your own loft.

    I recently bought some lumber for the new loft I'm building for my juveniles since they really need to be separated from the adults and untill the weather clears up a bit I'm looking for inspiration on how to build it and this is basically perfect! It even has about the dimensions I was planning on using, the layout, everything! The only thing I'll have to do differently is the floor.

      I'm glad you like the loft I built. If I were to build another one, I would make it taller so it would be more of a walk-in. It's hard to climb in and out, but it's doable. Maybe I'm just getting to that age! Good luck with your pigeons!

    Talk about repurposing lumber. That looks fantastic! I’m proud for you. What kind of wire mesh do you use for your flooring?
    Is it hard to clean under your other lofts?

      @Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons  2 роки тому +2

    While Mike beautiful beautiful birds. Beautiful rollers, your racing pigeons, and your Rocky ridge whites. OMG beautiful birds. I sent you a comment the other day. About buying some rollers. You replied you don't have any young ones for sale. But you would breed some for me. How much would two pair of bald head roller youngsters cost? And the box to ship them. Again I'm just starting out. I used to have rollers when I was a teenager. I had a lot of fun with them. They'd stay up in the sky for a long time. And just keep rolling and rolling. Love to watch them do that. If you can help me out that would be great. I know you wanted me to email you. I'm not really good I'm doing that. I'm a lot better at texting. Please let me know if you can help I would greatly appreciate it thanks.
