Nesting box question

[Pigeon28]

I got a little restless this winter and decided to build some nesting boxes for my birds arriving this spring. I decided to offset the doorways and am just now conjoining the two sets of four and realized that two sets of the doors are pretty darn close. Are they to close?View attachment 2060981View attachment 2060981

Ended up just swapping them around. Would delete the post but I don’t know how.

I can see a few possible neighbor problems.

I think you got it!
I gotta learn to be more productive if I 'get restless'
Those are some nice looking boxes!

Beautiful nest boxes! I don't use those nest fronts, but I have heard that if you paint them different colors, they know which one to go to and you don't have them going to the wrong one. Anybody try this?

Thankyou very much!! I have actually seen some people with painted ones in videos but have never read anything about it, I guess I’ll have to do a little research
