Yes. You set a time on it and it opens and closes. The whole coop is made of recycled plastic bottles. The auto door is so that I can still go on holiday and I don’t have to pay someone hundreds of pounds to get up at 5am and shut the door at 9pm
It was so much cheaper to buy. The coop we bought from cosypet was awful and falling apart. We had it for half a year. Then we bought a nestera which is not the best design but has an automatic door
I have nightmares about them all escaping still. The run I was sold had a small opening under the door. Couldn’t figure out how they were escaping until I caught hera in the act
Silkies! Where do I start? Well on the first day that I had silkies we had an escapee and one week after we had another escapee. My third silkie has escaped a couple of times. Hera the red silkie has escaped more times than I can count
