I am about to build an aviary and I have been told that the roof should allow in sunlight - as birds need sunlight to breed well. But another breeder told me this is just asking for diseases from the wild birds. What do you think?

hi there hobo,i take it you are on about an outside flight ,its,all down to choice,i had one that was fully exposed,and had nothing but trouble with slugs and birds dying on me,i moved the flight and shed,this time covering the the back,2sides,and putting a clear perspex roofon,only leaving the front exposed,no trouble with slugs or birds dying,so i personally would say cover the roof at least,to stop any wild bird poo getting in and contaminating,and try and place in an area not fully exposed to the wind

Mick, your birds look like they are having a whale of a time. Those swings are very popular  |
