making a pvc drop trap for my pigeons

[aaabirdman]

Hi,

So I finally got my 2 homers and 2 satinettes. I will post pics when I get a chance.
I want to put a pvc tube drop trap. However I am thinking that my satinettes may not fit since they get bigger than the homers. How big will they get and can they fit. The coop is 4x4. Please answer.

All of the satinettes that I have ever had were only about half to two thirds the size of homers. I don't think that they will have any problem with the PVC drop traps, but would be surprised if they survive the hawks.

There aren't many hawks, why do you think the satinettes may not survive the hawks and the homers may? just asking

Homers are bred for flying - satinettes are primarily show birds. Hawks decimate my Birmingham rollers, but my homers and homer/roller crosses are more hawk evasive.

Ok by the way do you have any good xtra tips for satinette care and homing pigeon care?
