I need some advice asap please. I've been planning on asking for help with my dove noise problem ( males during one sleeping hours mostly) , but hubby approached my with his solution this morning and it may be the right answer.
Problem:
The doves have been going crazy lately and he had the nerve to suggest I rehome/ sell them and move on from my dove love
- NO. He was hoping I would go along with this because he is having a lot of trouble sleeping with Pan serenading Tink all the time. I admit he does get too carried away at times and I feel bad. It is affecting him. He needs his sleep, we are not young kids anymore and he works very hard everyday however I can sleep through all Pan's noise no problem 
. He did give earplugs a chance and they cause him ear pain. I have tried different things to try to quiet Pan and now Snow also but they only work to an extent. If Pan is in high gear nothing will deter him.
Right now the bird room is right next to our room. Both rooms are in the basement. I moved them
Into this room about a year and a half ago I believe. It hasn't been completed as if yet but has worked nicely except for this issue.
Husbands Solution: to hire a contractor for a day to help put up some walls/ wall frames and maybe a false ceiling in half the garage and move my birds out there. I live in Michigan, our garage is heated with a ceiling/ roof gas heater. He said all gas fumes exit the room through the ceiling of the garage and it is just like the gas we heat the house with currently. He mentioned buying a device to turn the garage door in and off remotely so it would not be opened by accident, that we would use the second half for entering the garage, accessing the freezer, pool, pulling in the boat in the spring and summer. He could/ would move the majority of his junk and tools out. What do you think and do you have advice? I would need to be 100 comfortable with the situation and their safety. He is very gunho about doing this and wants to do it at the end of the month. It would become my animal area for my birds and rodents ( doubtful I would move
My lizards out there). I really need to know if this is nuts or not. He wants to talk to the contractors today.
This is the garage. Or the half I'm not standing in- behind me is a door, and there is a door into the house and another door in the back to the back yard and obviously the rest of the garage but I think this gives the overall feeling of the space.
These pics show more than half of the garage, obviously. I'm not sure if half is big enough. I would gain several feet in length but loose width.
