Just wondering what combo on your henboxes is you're favorite. I have several henboxes and hands down snakewood for the lids. Box combos are spalted apple , english walnut , black limba , persimmon , teak and hawian mango. All have snakewood lids and would not get rid of any of them. So , what do you like ?

Katlox over Teak and Rosewood over Walnut are both excellent as well. I have to agree though,?Snakewood is probably my favorite lid for henbox also.

Katolax over Butternut and Snakewood over Crabapple. Two different sounding combos but all turkey.

Wonder how a snakewood over butternut henbox would sound.

I've wondered the same thing. I just might be giving Richard a message here soon to see if he can build one. I like the Turpin better than hen box personally but they play the same in my opinion. I'll let you know what he says when I message him.

Spitten and drummen

Sounds good. Update me if you will.

I have built one already and its a good combo. I have an order for one now.

Spitten and drummen

Is it a raspy call or more on the cleaner side?

Is it just me or is there a big surge in snakewood on box calls
I know it sounds good , just a big surge is all

noisy box call that seems to sound like a flock of juvenile hens pecking their way through a wheat field

Snakewood / English walnut
Bloodwood/ English walnut
Katalox / Zebrawood
