hi I was going to make wire cylinders lay them on their side and attach them up high half filling with grass. So my question is what size should I make them ? what has worked for others? thanks

An article on nesting receptacles that you might find useful...http://www.cliftonfinchaviaries.org/cfa/nests/nests.htm
I hang them (wire cylinders) vertical with holes formed at different levels...my OBWs seem to like this style.
