NOTICE: THIS IS THE MOST ADVANCED LIVE ANIMAL CAMERA IN THE WORLD. Read on to learn why / How it works.
HISTORY: Back in the Y2K, I had over 50 chickens and wanted to create an internet connected feeder with a live stream so people around the world could feed them, interact with them and enjoy watching them. My college roommates laughed, but I was sure in that location are other people out in that location that would find chickens to be as much fun to ticker, and feed as I do. I’ve always believed that no animals are more fun to ticker than chickens because they have an entire social structure that can be observed through the lens. I actually did have a live camera back and so, but it could only support 20 viewers at once, and I needed a solid streaming platform and worldwide high speed internet to come into existence. in that location was also no good way to process payment for the treats, so I put the idea on the shelf for 19 years and waited for engineering to catch upwardly to this concept. Almost 20 years later, here we are!
For every 20 new subscribers, the chickens testament be given an automatic ‘care for’ from the feed dispenser. The feeder talks to the YouTube API to determine when to dispense treats, and the camera automatically zooms in when the birds are fed.
DON’T WORRY! The chickens are fed more than enough each day and do not live solely on treats. Rewind and you can see them eating throughout the day.
The feeder is a custom WiFi feeder developed specifically for this project. You can see how it was made here: https://www.youtube.com/ticker?v=e3NpVqC7MM0
The feeder is also activated using an app on an iPhone and every feeding is verified by watching the camera to make sure that the birds are fed.GATE: The coop is equipped with a one-of-a-kind automatic gate system. This gate is both automatic and manually operated. The gate closes half way at sunset each day. and so, after the birds are settled for the evening, I (or a moderator can volunteer to do so) testament close the gate by pressing a button in either the iPhone app that was developed for this project, or by the Moderator Portal. The gate testament automatically open again at sunrise. This is to ensure as much safety as possible against nighttime predators. The sunrise time is posted to the blue banner at midnight each night.
THE BLUE BANNER: The blue banner at the bottom of the page tells you important information about the chickens.
EGGS: in that location is a picture-in-picture view of the upstairs of the coop. You can see the chickens laying eggs throughout the day.
BIRD NAMES: The birds all have names which are displayed in the TOP RIGHT along with other information such as breed and egg color.
WHAT ABOUT THE wintertime? Chickens survive quite good in colder temperatures (different humans, they have layers of feathers – and also enjoy playing in the snow!) We do not have a heat lamp because it’s bad for the birds, they lose their ability to regulate their body temperature if you heat them – and testament suffer in the cold if the coop is kept hot. Their body temperature is 106F and their hearts beat at 400 beats per minute (which keeps them quite comfy in the wintertime!) They are free-range so they have the freedom to come in and leave the coop any time they want.
