Tell me I'm not the only one with a webcam in the coop...

Oh certainly! Before I found one of two cams, I almost plunked down cash for a webcam with infrared capabilities. I wouldn't mind having a security cam set up eventually for the whole property myself, but that's just going to have to wait. Waiting isn't something I do well with, LOL.

LOL! I'm glad I can't have a roo... otherwise I would most definitely be in trouble with a bunch of baby chicks!

What a great idea! We weren't planning on running electric to the coop, but I would seriously consider it for something like this

Ahh, fellow Panasonic user! I'm not 100% set with the position yet, but panning is a great option for small spaces.

Cool! We move ours to suit our needs! As you can see, it is now sitting in the middle of our split coop. Love it in the Winter so I can see if someone is done laying before I go out in the cold! In the end box is Dottie, our blrw that's FOREVER broody!

That's a great idea! I think I have it in a position that I can see into the nestbox from the corner. This is turning me into some kind of chicken voyeur!

Nice cameras, both of you! I love having mine out there- I can watch them from my desk. Of course, that means I don't get much work done, but oh, well... The chickens are more fun!

I haven't nailed the reason why but I can watch chickens for hours, even while being eaten alive by mosquitoes.

I can see the girls drink a lot. I've been noticing a wet spot by the nipple so I put a piece of cedar siding under it to gauge leakage and find that it's not leaking, but flowing too much per drink. I may be filling the 5 gal reservoir too high.

Gah... back to work
