Fill-line on the outside of each gourd for adding nesting materials. Six drainage holes are standard in each gourd and two 5/16" hanging holes. Stainless mounting porch hardware is included with each gourd.
The two center line hole punches on the gourd recommends 5/8 inch distance from the porch to the bottom of the entrance hole, however the porches may be attached at different levels at the landlord's discretion.
