Hi,
I've been looking for a good quality roost box to setup in my garden, more so now as the winds have picked up.
I haven't had any luck online. So I was hoping to make one.
What size does the entrance hole need to be to allow a robin to enter?
Do I need to provide any additional support on the outside of the hole to allow the robins' ease of access?
Look forward to your advice!
Yes I do mean roost boxes as in: http://www.shawcreekbirdsupply.com/plans_roost_box.htm
But again i'd like to make it as friendly as possible for robins and birds of similar or smaller sizes.
They seem to get on well in the garden, going from garden to garden pretty much together, so was hoping to provide a place to sleep at night safely.
Your recommendations will be most welcome.
