American Barn 12 Room Purple Martin House
Create a rustic shelter for your favorite migratory bird using the S&K American Barn Purple Martin House. This abode offers martins a wealth of features, while providing them a themed roost to enjoy for several seasons. The farmhouse-inspired shape brings a fun look to this piece, complete with faux shutter shapes and a familiar color scheme. Each white, plastic face ensures the home remains cool for nestlings, and ventilation holes near the roof line help to further regulate temperature. The two main floors each have four separate apartments, for eight comfortable roosts measuring 8.25″ long, 8.5″ wide, and 6″ tall. Four additional apartments in the attic offer even more roosting spots, and every opening is crescent shaped to deter starlings. The black, plastic floors on the main body offer traction for nestlings, and integrated nest bowls here help martins place their nest. The door panels swing upward for regular nest checks, and the openings on the main body feature rain canopies and landing platforms. This added area offers martins a convenient resting spot, while included perches can be installed on the sides for extra lookout points. The dark green, steeply pitched roof brings a dramatic look to this unit, and the item’s UV stabilized, copolymer plastic construction creates a durable home. Install the S&K Galvanized Steel Easy Pulley System Martin House Pole (not included) through the premade openings in the center of the home, so you can properly place it in your yard. The pulley system on this pole enables you to raise and lower this home in moments. The item snaps together without requiring any tools, and drainage on each floor helps the nestlings remain dry and safe. Help martins thrive and add classic design to your yard with this American Barn Purple Martin House. Assembly required. Made in the USA.
