Section size for young birds?

[NeilA]

I know a fancier who has more pigeons than perches and has won all but one yb race in his club
He uses it as a motivation in his view and stumbled on it accidentally

How do you "accidentally" have more pigeons than perches ?

Probably sold less than expected

Quickie gents. Concrete base went down this morning a laying some block on Monday for the loft to sit off it. I’ve got a stack of cement fake stone blocks left over from a job - they’re 17” long, 8” high and 4” deep. Stood on their side they look a bit thin - although there’s 4 runs of then running side to side so I assume stable enough. Laid flat they’re obvious more stable but give the loft 4” off the concrete base as opposed to 8.

Thoughts?

Cheers

Personally mate I wouldn't bother having blocks at all if you have a concrete base, it will only give the rats somewhere to live !! I'd just put a damp proofing down then the floor straight on top of that.
If you are going to use blocks though I think I'd want it as high as possible as the rats/vermin will be less likely to live under there if its more open. It should still be stable enough once the floor is on it.

You can fix some plastic around the runners will give some protection from damp, as Trev says higher the better
