In this video, I'll guide you through my steps creating a safe and comfortable home for your feathered friend.
Parrots require a cozy nesting box where they can lay eggs and hatch their chicks. With the right design and materials, you can create a sturdy and durable box that will last for years.
Its a simple box construction from cypress pine but has a few unusual features that took some working out.
Thanks for watching!

Remember, it's important to ensure the nesting box is the right size and has the necessary features to keep your parrot safe and comfortable. So be sure to follow instructions carefully and make any necessary adjustments for your specific parrot breed. Remember there are links in the description for plans for a lot of Australian wildlife.
Thanks for watching, and happy building!
Wow that bird box looks amazing🌈🥳! Lucky king parrots!
Thanks Jane! I'm glad you like it 🙂
Love the video! 😂. My Dad used to make nesting boxes when I was a child in England
Thanks! I'm a bit embarrassed to say I had no idea they were really a thing until I was contacted about one. Fun to build though!
Nicely done! My hoarding nature cringed when you were throwing those offcuts into the trash 🤣 but such a cool project! You'll have to post a follow-up once it's in place and (hopefully) has some parrots living in it.
Thanks Rob! I've learnt that I have to be a lot more cutthroat with my offcuts as I keep running out of space. The burn bin gets a workout now.
Do you know the measurements a nesting box should be for princess Parrots?
I'm afraid I wouldn't know specifically. I put the links to my research materials in the video description, there might be something of use there. If not I found a number of passionate facebook groups that might be able to help you out. Good luck! And enjoy the build if you have a go.
Thanks
