These are the biggest birdhouses in the world. I’ve never seen one bigger than mine.
He seems unfamiliar with the concept of a dovecot. I’ve seen several that are far larger than that.
(Oh, he thinks a dovecot is not a birdhouse? Hmmm.)

He enjoys it, and it helps him manage chronic pain? Excellent.
Other people enjoy it, enough to buy his houses? Wonderful!
I’m not into it, however. To minimize the risk of diseases, it’s best practice to have birdhouses that can have the poop, etc. be removed when the birds are not using them.
Also, all I can think of when I look at the barn wood houses is ‘carpenter bees will love that!’

Owner, wandering through his property, “it is quite large for one, but I do like the family to come round”.

Re size, you’re 100% correct. Three of my six uncles on my mother’s side of the family raised pigeons and housed them in homemade pigeon coops located atop their B’klyn residences. Each structure was at least three times the size of SUVs, but even those were dwarfed by bona fide dovecotes. He may be thinking of birdhouses that look like people’s homes.
