I'm here to tell you this nest box thing has been a real conundrum for me but I think I have finally done the deed. Since the chicks are here I need to wrap up all the noisy work before they feather out and are ready for their new digs.

Got the holes cut yesterday and finished the outside door. The holes are 5 1/4". I can easily get my open fist through this size opening. At least I thought about this aspect of this project before I cut too small a hole since you only get one shot at cutting a hole with the type hole cutter I used.
