Both my lofts are about 8'x 8'x 8' at the peak! I have about 5 breeding prs in each! Have had up to 8 prs but I've circled the wagons a bit and reduced my breeders! They are a lot healthier due to a more relaxed atmosphere now!
I still have an extra 4x8' on the end of one of my lofts that will soon be turned into a ind breeding room! Plan on 6 ind boxes in there! That loft is actually 8x12x8 overall! 2 sections.

My breeders have 4'X8'X7' high with a flypen.I like to be able to reach the birds above my head.Got just enough room in there to turn around with the indis stacked on a table 3 cages high.It would be better if it was 6'X8' but 4X8 does the job.

WaTtS Upp,
My breeding loft is 8' wide, 8' deep & 6.5' tall. It is divided down the middle which ends up with 2 pens that are 4'x8'. I also have a small fly pen on the front that is 3'x3'x8' that is also divided in half where they can take a bath, I keep the waters and grit up on it.
One side is for 8 pair to breed the other side is for odd birds that are not being used for breeding.
Once I have built up my stock/kit birds I am going to cut back on the breeders side and have it for 6 pair only with larger nest boxes. My loft is all open loft as I don't like putting 2 birds in a small container, strictly my preference.
I really wish I had a much larger loft for my breeders; however, that is not possible due to where I live.
Hope this helps...
Richard

My overall loft size is 21'X 18',everything is contained within,with a roof that slopes from side to side 10'down to 7'. I have 3 breeding lofts 6X6X7, each with an outside flight cage. I have 3 different strains,so 6pr in each. From the pic all the breeders flights cages are not visible, Iam in the process of building a flight cage for the window on the far left, on the far left side is the second(out of sight) and the third is on the back side of the loft.
