Ganus Family Loft is located in the northern part of Indiana, very near to the Indiana and Michigan border and about 90 miles east of Chicago, Illinois. |
||
We have 3 lofts - a breeding loft, an old bird racing loft and a young bird racing loft, located on five acres of property. The breeding loft pictured below | ||
measures 12 feet wide and 50 feet on each side with separate wings of individual breeding sections. All the lofts have floor heat to provide heat in the | ||
winter and to control dampness. | ||
Twenty six pair of our top breeders are kept in individual breeding sections. Each of these sections also have an individual aviary for the pair for bathing and relaxing outside. | |||

Below left: A two story building with the bottom floor used for storage and the top floor used for young birds. A 20 ft. x 20 ft. x 10 ft. aviary has been added where the birds | |||
can take their bath and just relax in the sun. | |||
Below right: This loft replaced the young bird loft that I used to fly out of. In the ceiling are sliding panels that are opened and closed to control the ventilation and temperature | |||
of the loft. Aviaries were added on each side for the breeders or youngsters that are now housed in the loft. |
