Last Summer I got this Martin house off of the forum from Jacquie here is the thread. THANKS JACQUIE!!!!!!!!!!!!
https://www.purplemartin.org/forum/view ... =2&t=32319

I got it in the mail about a week later. It needed a little work but that was completely fine. I actually got it for my grandpas colony because he has a Round Heath House that is very hard to clean and take down. So, I got him this one and now he didn't want it and he kept saying it's your house. So I took it back and I have painted it so it looks like the Trio Castle and Mini Castle Systems. I have a Mini Castle already and I wanted another one. As well have doubled the compartments, porch dividers and excluders. This DH12N is going in my backyard as well with a Trio MSS12W. DornCounty said he would put a Trio up in my backyard so I'm trying again in my backyard. I tried in 2015 and had a few visitors for about 3 days and then they left. So let's Go!!!

Here are some pictures of the house.

Looks great! Hope the birds don't mind the gourd rack I replaced it with!

Happy Day!
