If the piggery is open try putting it inside?My son bought an owl box from an organization (I think it was the owl trust) and we put it up on the end of an old piggery about 20 years ago. Even a tiny CCTV camera inside it. There's never been an owl even look at it. I think a pigeon investigated this spring but it's still not occupied
Which way does it face? It should be away from the prevailing wind and with clear sight for an owl flying above. Ours took three years before owls found it. This year they raised four which are still flying round the garden with the last one still shrieking for food. Last year with the excellent spring there were five.
