Steve are you going to split the 19 birds you have into 2 diff teams?? Or will they all stay together as 1 kit.

Cristian, it cost about $125. the best part was taking all the ideas of the roller guys on this forum, along with the numerous pics and putting it together. Listen, i'm no carpenter (please hold the laughter), so its not pretty, but its got pull out 1x2 wire floors, and all the dimensions, gleaned from this site as well. i had a lot of fun building it. and the best part was, watching my first kit return to it after their maiden flight

yes, i do know Mike Rose, as Ralph pointed out. everyone should add info to their profile, plus it would be nice if everyone also added their location on their signature. most forums actually show location under username right on the post. I don't know John Lawrence, where is he located? i'd sure like to get another kit, but that won't happen till next spring, as i'm sure everyone has stopped breeding now.
