Solar powered automatic chicken coop door
What
do you do if you want to install an automatic chicken coop door but
you don't have electricity running to your coop?
Chicken
coop door.com has
recently come out with a new solar powered option that will save you
the chore of letting your girls out in the morning and remembering to
lock them back up at night.
The price is 324 dollars and maybe worth it if you don't have the skill and
time to build an automatic chicken coop door yourself.
Edited to add:
After years of research, Mark eventually settled on this automatic chicken door.
You can see

chicken door alternatives and why he chose this version here.
If you're planning on
automating your coop, don't forget to pick up one of our chicken waterers. They never spill or
fill with poop, and if done right, can only need filling every few days
or weeks!
