Dale, you really don’t want a pole that high – it would be almost impossible to monitor. PLUS, when you mention a “pole”, don’t know if you mean wooden or otherwise, but of course, wood poles are definitely a no-no if possible. Sure, there are plenty of those out there, but think about the predators (coons, snakes, cats, etc.) that can climb right up that wooden pole and grab your babies or eggs. Think hard about it – maybe you can come up with a better rig. Good luck. Like Tammy says, 5 feet to hold entrance is recommended & seems to work good.
