Hi Seeseng & Hello to all swiftlet master,

This is LogMac from Penang & I'm new here. I sincerly hope that i can be given a chance to learn from anyone of you in this trade.

I think I've encounter tempretue problem at my newly build farm @ village near Kuala Kangsar ( 6 mths of age ).
I DIY the farm myself & Its a 14'x70' 1 storey with zinc roofing & open roof concept. Todate there are only 2 nests - 1 fully complete the other just trace of nest base.
The recorded minimum tempreture at night reaching 21 deg. Is there any solution to bring up the tempreture in a cost effective way?

My humble opinion - Due to the recent iregular climate change with longer rainny season (in a way is good to swiftlet for more food supply), those farms which is in remote area or closer to any hill nead to take precaution on structure insulation otherwise extra cost needed to optimise the tempreture, just like me......

Appreciate any advise & opinion.
Thnx in advance.

Thnks for quick reply, I'm using 24nos of 4" PVC pipe with elbow and 1 exhaust fan from 2pm to 6pm.

Hello, lyf5354
1st of all, TQ Very Much 4your recomendation. Wow! It looks good 2me, if it works its sound cost effective. I'll get organise 2try it out and we can share the outcome 2gether.
I just finished filled up the air vent hole as per SeeSeng advice, and now start2 monitoring the tempreture, will keep UAll informed.
Mr. lyf5354, I'm fr PG also. Maybe someday we can meet up somewhere 2hv a cup of drinks, since we both share a common issue @ the farm. I sincrely hope that u like my idea.
TQ!

BCO_SP,

I think the situation of the location of your proposed birdhouse is similar with mine. I try to overcome the lower height of the single storey BH by adopting the higher Box Type Entrance with "OPEN TOP ENTRANCE", I hope this choice of mine can work. Maybe Seeseng & other Sifu can give us their comment & opinion, tnks in advance.
As i find out earlier, more attn is advisable to put on the daily tempreture diffrence n make it a point when designing your BH.
Anyway BCO_SP, what is Tanah Lot, is it a land title?
Thnks.
