Automatic chicken door

Postby helomech » 01:41 pm Aug 15 2011

Just got my solar powered automatic chicken door in this morning and got it put in. Took about a hour, and it is much nicer than I thought it would be. Now we can leave the house and leave the chickens free range. And they will still be locked up safely at night. Sorry for the crappy pics the sun is to bright outside and the coupe is to dark.

Yeah, my wife was getting mad that she always had to be home. She wants to go to her mom or dad's house and spend the night, and can't with the chickens before I put this in.

Thanks, got automatic water, door, and feed. Just have to fill the feed and clean the coupe every once in a while.

Thanks, seems to be working great. Hopefully the chickens start using it.
