Hey All, due to a significant increase in the price of paper nest bowls and the soon to be increasing shipping costs both through UPS and the US Post Office, we have decided to not sell them any longer.
They are already an expensive item to ship as noted by more than one person surprised that they cost as much as they do to ship. They will just cost even more now!
FYI: We do not charge a handling fee or mark up the shipping costs. You pay only what it costs us to get your item to you. We apologize for any inconvenience.
One solution might be to use the plaster type or plastic bowls that can be cleaned and reused. Definitely cheaper in the long run.

Thom, I appreciate your confidence in both Joni and I! At this point, I don't how we would do all that we do without Joni beside me working so hard.
She is a trooper and works hard at keeping things organized and running smoothly. Any glitches in our system is me, I can assure you! LOL
Thanks to you and everyone else who places product orders, this past month of March has been our busiest and most successful to date!
THANK YOU ALL!

Toni & Joni,
Thanks for the good service.I'm happy with the plastic weave nestbowls and the nestpads that go with them wash out just fine for another many uses.
Thanks again,

Hey Andrew, good suggestion, do you punch holes in the bottom of those bowls to prevent moisture buildup and bacteria and mold growth on that straw?
Hey Kel, I think I might join you in using those bowls and pads, do the eggs roll away from the setting bird or does the bowl shape keep them in the middle of the bowl?

Yeah,the eggs stay right in the middle Tony,and everthing stays pretty dry right up to the 2 week mark when I put the squeaks on the floor.The edge of the bowl is low enough for most of the poops to go overboard.Andy those are real cheap ones,eh from Ikea.Looks like the edge of the bowl is a little high tho.

Andy,
I see you found the walmart bowls. Same ones I have been using for three years. I cut a few holes in the bottom and put in a felt pad. I have noticed the nest get a little thinner as it gets warmer when I put the felt pads in.
May be a little high on the sides,but it keeps the eggs and chicks in the bowl.

Hey Tony,
Are you totally out of the paper bowls?..If not, and are just not shipping or reordering them, and have some to sell, I will buy some when we come down next weekend.

Hey Jerry, I don't have any extras, just what I use for my needs. Thanks for asking about it! See you Saturday.
Should have been here last week, had one Ruby roll down from over 200 feet, she was still rolling when I got to her, I had to pick her up to stop here from rolling.
