HELP US FROM HOME
Build a Kiwi Nesting Box
Calling all home handymen!
If you're good with tools, our kiwi need your help to build cosy artificial burrows/nesting boxes.To keep our kiwi healthy, we need to replace each nesting box after two or three years, because the wood can harbor harmful Aspergillus spores as it begins to rot. This means we need a large number of kiwi nesting boxes each year. We also need volunteers who are prepared to construct these nesting boxes for our kiwi and/or sponsorship to pay for the materials used to make these boxes. Download the designs and specifications for these simple, easy-to-assemble kiwi nest boxes and set to work in your garage or back yard.
If you can help, please contact us by email, phone
