automatic chicken door

You could get just the door and motor from pulletshut, solar charge and battery, or trickle charge, and photosenosr is optional, it can still be programmed to open/close anytime you want...I just figured by the time I got the motor found thick aluminum for the door, made the frame, installed it...got the timer, which is not as sophisticated, the battery even light to let you know the charge is good or not....made in USA...

I really like that made in USA part. I'll check into that one, I also like the solar powered idea, that way I don't have to run electricity.

I've often wondered that about chickens in Alaska - do they stay up all night in summer and only get up for a few hours in winter? Since they seem to be so tied to dawn/dusk, I would guess they do....

Blackout shades?
