Hello. I'm looking for decent wren nest boxes and since I want to buy maybe 2 or 3, I don't want to spend $20 or $30 for each one! Any idea where to get cheaper (but still good quality) boxes? I'm looking for the little hanging ones (with 1 or 1 1/8" holes preferably.) Also, I need something that would open up so I can clean them too. We used to sell cheap ones when I used to work at a nursery, and I can't remember who made them. I got outbid on some on ebay:( I could make some myself but I know right now I'll never get to it! Thanks. BC

Thanks a lot Hannu...those are great suggestions and I will buy a few of those wren houses. Haha, those cheap ones from Heath are the exact ones I used to carry when I worked at Snipes Nursery. That coffee can idea is cool too, I may look into that as well. Bookmarked the pages. I searched high and low for those wren houses and couldn't find them, so thank you very much!
