----------Joe Bell and Ken Walters in front of my loft. Day was windy and I scored 70 pts. Ken done a great job scoring, after going over 2 barbed wire fences to keep track of them in the wind and losing them behind some trees.

inside of loft, my space
individual breeder pen. theres 6 in each side of the loft
my original setup for individual pens. too small. will change to the bigger style like in the other pic.
3 individual pens. 4 feet wide, 18 inches deep, 20 inches high
outside in fly pen. bath time. hey Tapp, do you recognise those red hens on the ground? Hendersons maybe?
bigger view of fly pen between both lofts
back view of second loft
feeder mounted in the door so I dont have to go in the loft space more than necessary.
view of feeder from outside the breeding area. wooden lid just lifts off.
one side of my 20 bird kit boxs
view of all 4, 20 bird kit boxs
my 11 bird kitbox
band box
floor plan of the loft and fly pens. not all to scale but close.

Yes Butch I do! And I had a hollow spot in my heart when I went out to the loft This mornning. I must not have got my trap door locked right. last night a cat climbed up my feed tray leaning aginst my loft and entered and left through the trap Killed my favorite Mee Hen and a nice dark check Weins in my B team.I have to remember to set my feeders on the roof!!! DUH! MY fault.

Rudy , the feeder is only 2.5 inches deep, 6 inches high and 20 inches long. I wanted to make sure none of the feed was out of reach and sat in there too long. Its mounted with 2 screws and every week I pull it out and any feed in it I dump out for the chickens.
Tapp, that is a good looking bird too. Why do we lose so many good ones? If it aint the BOPs ,its something else..

Hey Max, this is an old post of my setup. There is a couple birds in a couple pics. I`ll try to find anouther post with some of my birds. I really need to get some new pics. I`m working on a new box like I think I seen Tony post about for taking pics of the birds.

Hey Rudy... How are those feeders working out for you? I like it because the feed always stays clean.
I dont ever have to clean the inside of them
