| This female purple martin is bringing insects back to the nesting compartment to feed its young. All of our Purple Martin Bird House Installations use the Supergourd for several reasons. Most martin housing on the market today is made of aluminum, which is one of the best conductors of heat. In the northern states where it is much cooler, this is an inexpensive material that works fine for raising young in. However, in the southern states (Texas over to Florida), temperatures have been measured up to 138 degrees inside aluminum houses, with around 40% of the eggs being COOKED and never reaching the fledgling (flight) stage. We fledge out 93% of the eggs laid using Supergourds since they are made of polyethylene and bottom ventilation holes keep them cooler. |
