Sorry it's been so long in responding to these. I just didn't seem them sooner. Don't know why????


I designed this coop in a CAD program so I'd be happy to make a .pdf and send it out. Just message me with your email addy.

LOL! Thanks. We get so much snow in the winter that I wanted to make sure that the doors would open without too much shoveling. The past two winters we've had 5-6 feet on the ground at one time. Yikes! I also wanted to make sure that the nest box I put in on the windbreak wall will be protected from water dripping on it. I plan to just flip the top and grab the eggs without ever setting foot inside the coop.

And how could I forget the pigeon side!!!???

I got my first 10 pigeons on 7-4 from my falconry sponsor.

Here's a pic of a couple pigeons and the wire floor 16" off the ground level. The idea being that the poop falls down underneath and when it's cleaning time, I just lift up the wire panels and scoop it out for the garden compost.

The pigeons don't seem to like the box perches I made for them. They'd rather sit sideways up higher in the rafters and framing. I'll have to try to make the box perches larger I think. They do look pretty small now that I have pigeons in there
