ChickCam is running

[SpunkyChicken]

When I thought about setting up a cam for my future chicks I must've had this webcam someone set up of their shar pei puppies in the back of my head... I thought, chicks are fun to watch too, why not???

I probably won't be able to stream them hatching 'cause of the way my incubator is designed, though. So it's cool you were able to set this up.

Very cool!!! What a great idea!

The incubator I am using is the one I made (see my sig).

I can just stand the camera in the corner of the hatching tray, and hope the chicks don't beat it up too badly

I could also set the camera up on a tripod looking down, the incubator has a large glass window in the top.

I love watching these cams, if I ever get something besides dial up here I'll try doing one. Thanks!

ok, i had to leave for a couple hours, i hope there is still some action. i am glad that laying down is normal!

fyi everyone, hencam.com has grown up chickens and it is also cool, but not quite this much, FUN! this is awesome.

twigg, do you still have the sound on?

(ps: thats a darn nice coop you made, wish i had seen it to buy before i started mine. i would love to try building the incubator but might be over my head.)

It looks like the one trying to hatch now has a piece of another egg stuck on top of it's shell. Am i seeing that right? Is that going to be a problem?

No, nevermind, i think i'm seeing the shell and the membrane, looked like two pieces of shell.

Awww, I see one that is pretty dried off in front of the camera. Such a cool idea!

There's a chick head that keeps bobbing back and forth in front of the camera-- I can't see anything!
