A loft in Punjab has to survive 45°C in June and standing water in monsoon, and most of the loft designs online were drawn for Belgium.

The things that seem to matter:

  • Airflow without a draught blowing directly on perched birds
  • Enough height that heat rises away from them
  • A roof that does not turn the loft into an oven -- insulation, a double roof, or shade over it
  • A floor that stays dry, and can be scraped
  • Keeping rats, cats and snakes out
  • Space per bird, which is the one everybody underestimates

Damp plus crowding is where most loft disease starts, so ventilation is a health question, not a comfort one.

Post your loft: size, number of birds, materials, what you would change. Photos are genuinely useful here.
