Hi, sorry for spelling on previous post! I would love feedback on this type of nestbox. Are they bad in hot climates? Any information would be great! Thanks!

    I've used them indoors with lovebirds. They worked fine - easy to disinfect as you can run thru the dishwasher. However, I would not use them outdoors in the heat. Any nestbox used in hot weather can become a tomb but the plastic could indeed sweat especially if birds pooped in their box and/or were bathing and then sitting the eggs.
