It looks real good.. but kind of flimsy in some places.. Good luck! Might wanna add a couple things so it gets a little more strength to it.

In some Internet programs like Mozilla Firefox, photobucket, most of the time, will not let you post photos, they will just not show up....

Tou,
Just have them a little more up away from the ground because of spyders. And it's good to put some chinese chalk on the bottom of the cages for miraculous insecticide.

That looks something like some of my individual breeding boxes. Each compartments on mine is 24in x48in x16 tall. The whole cage is 2 feet wide 8 feet long and 4 feet tall on 2x4 legs and has 6 individual breeding compartments. On mine I have two doors per compartment one that is about three feet wide and the other about a foot wide. I can open the small door for feeding etc. so it is easier to control the birds and then open both doors to clean. the doors are 2x2 frames covered with hardware cloth. It makes a pretty good set up for me. I am thinking about making another one and putting it in the back of an 8 foot by 8 foot by 7 foot tall fly pen. That way I can shut them up for individual breeding and then once the birds are on eggs I can just open up the small doors and let the birds out in the fly pen until the are ready for the next round of eggs.

HELLO MR.VANG. GOOD START. YOU MIGHT WANT TO ADD SOME 2X4;S FOR added strength ,MEANING FRAME IT . TILT THE ROOF BACK, as not to collect water on top. add some roofing paper and shingles.LiFT IT UP OFF OF THE GrOUND about three feet. add your doors and you are ready to go.
