  • New to me racing lofts from the late Larry “The Big Dog” Holmes. I hope to be able to race out of these lofts that my friend and mentor flew out of for 40 years.

      More white than I am used to, I hope they fly well. Matt who is loaning me the breeders has had really good luck with them. Did your YB with canker pull out of it?

    Cool. That worked out well. Looks kind of high up off the ground to me.. Maybe not.

      Still need to lower and level them, but my back hurts, moving those floor jacks ....

      My first "new to me loft" was that high or even higher as you could almost sniper crawl under it from end to end. Over 20 years, it never had a mouse problem, even though if you missed the step during late night loft checks, you'd wind up half breaking your neck. I have enough cats and chickens around right now that I rarely even see a mouse, but I'm pretty sure that if it wasn't for that, the lofts that are only 5 to 6 inches off the ground would probably have mice living under them, if not in them.

    Nicely done. The first "new to me" loft I ever owned was a 35 year old 12 x 32 former fruit stand that I bought from a retired orchard man for $150. We moved it 5 miles at 2 A.M. to avoid traffic since it was so wide. It was NOT a fun experience since we used the same methods. I didn't realize when I bought it that the floor joists were made out of railroad ties. It weighed a ton. LOL

      I can't imagine moving one that size 😂

      @littleloftonthehill Yeah, don't do it! Not fun. Even the 8 x 20 mobile loft I had moved last year was a pain. The loft itself was a steal and it LOOKED easy, but the hidden costs and hidden trouble turned a 30 minute move into a month long project and it's still not really where I want it to be.

    • @littleloftonthehill
      @littleloftonthehill  19 днів тому +1

      Yes, I still need to lower and level them and most likely use t-bar fence stakes driven a few feet in the ground and bolted on the back corners to secure them👍

      Thanks for subscribing! I’m not sure I understand about selling opals. What are you thinking of? I have not sold any birds on Ipigeon 🤷‍♂️
