  • This is a a quick look at a kit box that I made up for my Birmingham roller pigeons.
    Birmingham rollers have become one of my favorite pastimes. This video shows a nice loft or kit box set up that I made for them. It doesn't show the construction of it but shows the finished product and is intended to provide ideas for your own set up/loft. My birds are very comfortable in this loft and like it more than anything. This elaborate kit box is in no way required to have happy healthy pigeons. I made it this way for their comfort but mostly for my convenience and ease of daily use.
    This is a link to a video of the birmingham rollers flying. • Birmingham roller pige...

    Hey Mike I'd have to agree with you in one of your other videos about that ferral pigeon only a few generations off. I bet 1 of its parents was a racing pigeon just looking at his markings and his awesome coloration almost like a type of Saddle homer.

    Of the many designs I've seen, I like this one very much. I have been looking for something on the small side that's really functional. Now that you have had it for a while, is there anything you would have done differently? Tks for the video!

      Hey Todd, I have had this kit box for over a year now and I wouldn't change a thing! I love it. I have 21 birds in it now and I am at max capacity and it's still ok as long as they get to fly. Possibly a bit bigger would be fine but I don't want anymore rollers anyway. Thanks for the comment.👍

      David Adams That’s great, it is 3 feet tall 3 feet deep and 32 inches wide. I Hope I get to see it when it is done.

    What did you use to make your perches? Thanks

    • @Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons
      @Rocky.Ridge.Pigeons  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The perches are made of 3/8 plywood and a block of 2 x 4. I cut a groove at 45° angle 3/8 wide about an inch into the block of 2 x 4 and did that on both sides inserted plywood into the groove with glue and put some Brad nails to secure them. The length of the 2 x 4 is about 5 1/2 inches. Also I cut down the 2 x 4 so that it’s more like a 2 x 3. Then I used a piece of strapping to mount 4 perches on one piece. This way it was easy to install 4 perches with two screws coming in from the outside.
      Thanks for asking, hope this helps.
