OK, been 10 plus years since I had 80 plus pairs Purple Martin(PM) colony. I still think of PMs from time to time. I rarely see or hear PMs my area and when I do puts smile on my face. I used these SREHs for over 10 years at my location and they worked for me. If those who have ability to. make their own I will Try to post dimensions on 1/4" graft paper if anybody has starling problem and interested in trying them. I have no use for them anymore. some reason didn't show inlay over the bottom one. but still give dimensions. As you can see inlayed over other SREHs mine gets rid of extra space and expands height little from Brest bone to top of back of PM. Any way enjoy if interested in this style.

Add picture of T-16 I made using L shaped entry holes my SREHs and porch predator gaurds if interested in Troyer Style T 14 housing?

will also add picture of snake guard which caught several snakes over years.
