Barn Owl Nest Box

Barn Owl nest box

This completely new "chalet" incorporates all the essential features for the safe rearing of owlets. Thoughtfully designed with advice from the Barn Owl Trust and other experts during the design stages.

Features that provide for the safe rearing of owlets and effective but simple management of the Barn Owl Nest box include:-

* Manufactured from forest sustainable exterior grade timber.
* Generous drained floor of approx. 300 sq. inches.
* Full width front platform with sturdy edging for owlets to exercise on.
* Full 17" depth from pophole to floor.

Specially drilled backplate in the Nest Box providing fixing holes above and below the Nest box and oversized holes to accommodate ropes for hauling the box up the tree and locating it. The backplate is reinforced top and bottom with sturdy battening and allows for unevenness of the tree trunk.

Double inspection hatch allowing full access to the whole floor area and facilitates cleaning or inspection from either side of the Nest Box. Both hatches are water-resistant at the edges and are held in position with draw bolts.

A generous weather "canopy" that protects both the pophole and the landing platform from the worst weather.
