nestboxes
hi, does anyone think i should keep my breeding box in the aviary all year round or should i just put it in for the breeding season?
Hi Jayesh,
Among other reasons, nest boxes are removed during the off-season primarily to clean them after the breeding season, prevent critters (insects and rodents) from habitating in them, and to provide more space for the birds (if the nest boxes are inside the flight cages). Of course you can keep them in there too if you want but I see no advantage in doing so.
Hope that helps.
