This is our new
loft.
The
loft
is 11, 65 metres long and 2 metres wide and consists of 5 departments. For
the widowers we have 2 departments were we could place 32 male pigeons. We
also have 2 departments for young pigeons. We could place 50 young pigeons.
And we have 1 department for the female pigeons. This
loft
is made of synthetic material and the inside is made of birchen plywood.
This
loft
is build by Herman van Ostaeyen, one of the best pigeon
loft
builders of Belgium. But also in the Netherlands, Germany, England and other
parts of the world. Lots of lovers from the sport ask him for advise, how to
make their air clean. His
lofts were build with a special system for
making the air clean.

These young pigeons are 5 weeks

trying to fly a little bit.

This is our whole
accommodation. As you can see it is not ready yet. The garden has to be
finished and there has to come a pigeon bath. The water connection is
already there, in the grass.

These young pigeons just
stopped using the spoon. In this picture you can see how the widower
loft
look like from the inside. We made all the departments for young pigeons,
because we have to start all over again.

At this picture you can see our
run to raise our pigeons. The growers aren’t in it yet, because these runs
are just made. Our growers are living somewhere else because of the
renovation. At the end of July, when the raise season past by, the grower
pigeons are coming back in their new paradise. Where they can moult
peacefully. And after that, the new brood tank would come in there. And
then we wait for the winter raise.
