Sorry for the sound, not sure what happened but it cut out early several times. If you have any questions about any of the lofts please let me know.

Are you saying you love your doves more than someone else loves their doves or are you saying you love doves more than you love most people… I guess both ways work.

I am still over there everyday taking care of his birds, he is slowly getting better. He will come out and sit. I will tell him you said hello!

Thanks Tom. I miss seeing Larry. Hey in response to your question about how many youngsters people breed. Here in Tennessee my club members and I breed about 100 and loose well over half. Crazy I know. When I flew in Auburn I would raise about 35 and loose many half. Last year I raised 90and sent 12 out to OLR and after the young bird season I had 63 left

Well I see where you got your inspiration from. That water holder is pretty great. What about something like that for your feeder as well??

The loft is very nice. My sugestión is put the traps close to the roof . The birds gone to trap fast.

Tom love your little loft .but would you like to go abit bigger ? But suppose its manageable..

@littleloftonthehill Жыл бұрын

Yes! I built this for my daughter to fly out of six years ago. She had expressed interest when she was younger. I really need three that size. It would allow let me fly the whole program. OB and YB, both with small teams. Like you said keep it manageable. This video was more for me. Looking for ideas. Making it into a KZfaq video was an afterthought. I added my little loft to the front of it and posted it for others. All the best!

that's okay, just put a piece of plywood temporarily at the top of the landing board so they can't see inside. its perfect design

The bad side of having a tin roof is that when it rains it makes a lot of noise for the pigeons inside. I recommend sandwich plates for the roof.

Question…can you race from something as small as the breeding hutches?

@littleloftonthehill Жыл бұрын

I guess you could, there would be a couple issues, with races come losses, you would need to keep pairs separate in such a small, if you lost a mate it would be hard for the other pigeon to race back to an empty breeding cage. I did a 4H group for a couple years. Six 5 week old pigeons to little 3x8 rabbit hutches. The kids would train their birds and we did races. We started to have problems as the birds started to mature. One pair would dominate the other birds, not let them off a perch to feed, water etc.

Are all the lofts built with treated lumber or a stain?

@littleloftonthehill Жыл бұрын

The small loft at the beginning of the video just has treated lumber on the floor. The older lofts at the end were stained years ago but it has since warn off.
