Excerpt from Pigeons
The proper housing of the stock is a highly important factor in successful pigeon breeding. This does not imply that the installation should be either elaborate or expensive, for, provided the quarters are hygienic, and give the birds ample protection during inclement weather, the more simple they are, the better. It is preferable that the pigeon loft should face south, in order that it may receive the maximum of sunlight, and at the same time be protected from northerly winds.
Experience has prov-cd that a small pigeon loft, as a complement to the poultry yard, is really the most advantageous form of accommodation. Under these conditions the work is comparatively easy to supervise, and does not necessitate disproportionate care or attention.
