Morning Sally. Haven't tried the rope project yet going to try a different way as the instructions say not to enclose the light in any way, I know it's a safety thing on their part but better safe than sorry. My original ideal was to run it under the roost with zip ties that way it's not crossed or enclosed.

yeah me too. I cant see how the heck he managed it, really dont. But not the first predicament them crazy critters got in.

auto pop door sharing

The cool weather I want, the storm part, not so much.

Here's a quick video of our temporary automatic pop door. I built the mount for it yesterday and assembled the new door, sill and cover for the outside (being that the door is lighter and weaker than the plywood I had previously). We installed the motor and brain with its new programming and new batteries last night and it opened exactly when it should have this morning. Works great so far. I will be interested to know how it holds up over the week. (I will cut off the extra cord)
