    Omlet auto door issues?

    Everything seems to be in working order. I suspect the malfunctions had something to do with the app update, or that the update was a result of the company having issues with the app. No way to tell. They don’t seem to release any kind of info to the public.

    Omlet auto door issues?

    Haven’t checked, but I will. I hope that was the source of the problems because mine also went offline last night but is back up again.

    Omlet auto door issues?

    The thing I like about the WiFi version is that I can look at my cameras and if they’re all in the run I can remotely close the door and lock them out of the coop for cleaning. (Once they see me coming they all run into the coop and then I have to coax them into the run.) When I’m done with the...

    Omlet auto door issues?

    I got over myself yesterday and did another factory reset and it worked. In one try! I’m up and running! Yay us!!!

    Omlet auto door issues?

    Morning here and mine is not. It’s 13 degrees and I don’t have it in me today. Gonna let it ride and get back to it when the weather warms up. I should have maybe left it alone and it would have done as yours did. I’m happy that at least one of us is up and running!

    Omlet auto door issues?

    I would normally have had more patience for it, but it was really cold, we were in the midst of a weird snow squall and the cracked skin on my thumb opened up again punching buttons for all those factory resets. Made me a little cranky, actually. Hopefully we’ll wake up tomorrow and everything...

    Deep litter method…did I screw up?

    I honestly don’t remember, but everything I have seen since states the opposite…that it needs to be turned for the oxygen. So I’ve continued to keep doing what I’ve been doing.

    Omlet auto door issues?

    It did! Everything is working but I can’t use the app to do anything remotely. Still getting the “waiting for device to contact server” message in the app. So ridiculous.

    Omlet auto door issues?

    Happy to report that the light came on and the door closed on its own, per schedule. At least I don’t have to go out in the bitter cold and wind.

    Omlet auto door issues?

    It’s so nice to be able to remotely control the door. I have cameras so before I go out to the coop to clean every afternoon I check to make sure they’re all in the run and I close the door so I can clean in peace. Otherwise, they hear me coming and run into the coop to greet me. What is...

    Omlet auto door issues?

    Yep. Mine is still waiting to connect to the server. I am plugged into electric. It’s supposed to close shortly. We’ll see what happens.

    Omlet auto door issues?

    Anyone having issues with their Omlet door? A few people today have said their doors are having trouble communicating with the Omlet server. I worked on mine for over an hour and it just won’t connect. I did five factory resets, reinstalled the app twice and rebooted both my phone and WiFi. With...

    Horse pellets for run

    Well, I feel a little foolish. We went out to evaluate the situation today and my wife informed me that what I thought was damp bedding was actually composted hemp. Ugh!!! Live and learn! We still removed some of the bedding to scale back on the massive amount that I had laid down. Thanks to all...

    Deep litter method…did I screw up?

    Well, that’s what I thought. The run is covered and I have clear tarps to prevent rain/snow from getting in. Occasionally when the wind comes in from the SE I’ll get some mild moisture. I’m going to keep doing what I’ve been doing. There’s barely any odor and the run is clean.
