automatic door

[studram]

looking for an automatic door that is timed to open but photosensitive to close. I like to leave my chickens in till noon so they lay in the roost instead of hiding all their eggs all over the farm. I can find doors that are all timer or all photosensitive but nothing that combines the two technologies, anyone know of anything out there that does fit what I want?

The Foy's model has this capability with an optional timer purchase. http://www.chicken-house.co.uk/acatalog/automatic-chicken-door-openers.html . I have bought from Wells and had shipped to the USA with no problem. Unit with door, photocell, and timer isn't cheap though.
