door

Does anyone have any recommendations for automatic doors (aside from the one that OverEZ sells) for the pop door on an OverEZ coop? The one or two that’s I’ve tried are not wide enough to attach to the relatively large pop door on an OverEZ coop. Thanks!

Ok so I'm not asking for help, I am asking for opinion. Maybe suggestions and/or requests. Things along the lines of what you would want added. Like photocell operated. However I have a different setup for that so I would have to post a new thread for that one. So besides painting it what do...

Over the course of the multiple years I’ve had chickens, they’ve always had a fascination with looking inside my house’s windows and into the house. I let my chickens free range most of the time and they often stand or sit down right outside of the door. Do they just like being on the porch or...

I'm so happy about the beautiful nesting box my husband built for me. He took my drawing and ideas and created just what I wanted. The bottom 2 boxes are 24" w x 18" h x 18"d for my Jersey Giants. The top 3 are 16" w x 18" h x 12" deep for everyone else. I painted it 2 colors. A darker gray...

Chicken palace no. I just need automatic coop door, automatic waterer (maybe with a float), diy automatic feeder... Maybe a camera to make sure everything is OK. I had to have surgery a few months ago and doing chores meant me nagging older kids to help out, just to free up time and to make the...

Hello everyone, My name is Duncan and I own/operate Frontenac Technology Solutions (Canada). I design and sell technology solutions mostly catered to farmers. I have recently started selling automatic chicken coop doors. My question today is whether there is a need for these types of systems in...

My ducks are super spoiled and my husband thinks I'm nuts for not wanting to leave them for a day. They have a very nice house that is heated and has electricity, nice size etc. Their door is operated by myself at night to lock them up in evenings after they put themselves to bed. I',d really...

I need reviews on automatic coop door openers. We do have power to the coop so plugin ones are an option.

This morning i went to close my chickens door which is a drop down door that closes like a cassel i guess and soon as i went to push down i noticed one of my chickens put its head out to get a piece of grass i guess and the door landed on her head. It wasnt a lot of force but the door is kind of...

Hi, I'm trying to decide on an automatic coop door. I was thinking of the Poultry Butler or Ador1 or the Pullet-shut chicken door company https://chickendoors.com/ . I love the wifi option on the Coop Tender but I read somewhere that it closes too fast and some chickens have died after...

alright i don't know if any of you can help because this is arduino text but here is my problem. I am trying to turn 2 relays on and off monitor them on the serial monitor and every thing seems to work except the serial monitor it prints the first command but as soon as the second command tries...

Would it work out to just put a cloth over the hole and the chickens push their way through it?

Ok hubby cut it bigger that needed. 18 in x20 in He cut it stud to stud Now he cannot figure out how to make the door. My intention was to cut it and use that to make the door Add hinges and a ramp. Ta da. But he says nope. And he already ruined the idea by cutting it a few times...

I just brought home four 12-wk old Barred rock hens. They are in a fully enclosed coop and run. I have both buried hardware cloth and a hardware cloth apron around the structure. Their coop access is inside the run. They have been naturally getting in the coop at sunset each night. We have not...

I searched, but failed. What is best size for the chicken door in a home built coop? One chicken at a time or better with double doors? I did finalize on a sliding door. What do you prefer and why? The automated doors intrigued me is the reason I went sliding. Cheers,

Has anyone used EMT Electrical conduit for a run frame? I'm on a budget and will soon be walling in our prefab coop/run into a coop only, raising it off the ground and building a separate run. I had seen PVC used, but I was wondering if EMT would be stronger and more durable in the long run...
