Seems adequate. Is there a reason you would go with box perches rather than 'V' ?

How deep were you thinking? Mine were shallow, 4" deep and 10x12 , others are deeper so the birds face forward.

Same question. I had some box perches and T-perches to start out...the box perches were not as popular with the birds so I ended up removing them.

I notice Bugsy holding her tail high, so I'm still going with female at the moment.


I haven't seen either bird perch on the flat perches yet, but the V's are higher, and its possible they do it without me seeing it. My V's are like 5" wide at the upper point (stick out 5" from the wall), and I think we made the "legs" 5" or 6" long. But I think my birds are in the smaller range of pigeon size.

Found a pretty cool old document. Book from 1921.
It’s a pdf, I think this link will work

I like the left color. I think it would match her skin tone better.

I know it's not much use for you but another farm near me has alot of white ferals. They would be ideal for what you want.

Never say never.
DD will be in London at the end of May for one week. I will babysit her babies.

For the troubles,,,,,,,,,, and compensation to me,,, she can bring some of those white beauties back home.
How many do you think she can sneak into a carry-on bag???
And most importantly,,,,,,, how would the TSA see this
You would of course be considered as an accomplice.
