We have lost 25 chickens from the same dog and 6 other neighbors have lost bunnies/ducks/chickens (all together 50+ animals). We are catching the dog in the act or right as the end. Animal control is helping but it’s a slow process. The dog is deemed potentially dangerous and not allowed to...
So I originally had a Canon T7 and it worked great, never had an error code, never even messed with the settings because it worked so well, so I'm very unfamiliar with how to fix these since I've only had one and it was super easy to use🙈. Apologies in advance because I don't completely...
What camera have you used that you love?
I am considering Blink. I would like to put one in my coop and one on the outside of my horse barn so I can see the property and coming and goings.
I just don't want a camera that is constantly going to wake the girls up from roosting at night. Thanks...
Curious to see what the group says about coop cams.
Not questioning having them or not. We personally just bought 2 of the v2 outdoor wireless Wyze ones, installation pending. We have a well protected coop & run, an automatic door on order, lots of predators and are at odds over what the cams...
Hello!
I just want to say thank you to everyone who has helped me so far on my journey caring for my chickens. I just wanted to update everyone on my coop and also on the new chicken coop camera I got! Its called AlkiVision, it was 40$ and it works amazingly. You can talk through it, hear your...
Welcome to the Photography Club! Feel free to post pictures you take as I critically stand by and judge your photos! (No I kid, sorry 😂)
And the best part is... post whatever pictures you want! It doesn’t have to be specifically chicken-related. (although it can be 😉)
Here is a picture I took...
What is the best wireless wi-fi nanny cam you can have to watch your babies? What does everyone else here use? I'm getting mixed reviews on Amazon. I can't make up my mind LOL
Hubby has worked tirelessly, every weekend since Jan to give our chickens a nice large coop and run. There is just some trim & paint touch up to do. It’s just beautiful & the run gives our girls lots of room to relax in. We also installed solar cameras in their coop and run. It’s nice to be able...
In my 3 coops I have installed two different camera system to be able to view the coops and runs. This allows me to monitor and check on all my fowl without disturbing them, especially at night.
I run a total of 14 cameras both interior and exterior.
Do you have cameras? What works for you if...
Hi there,
We are avid followers of backyard chickens. We love the information!! Thank you all; we were curious if the iPhone 11 (or any other iPhone/Android for that matter) affects the chicken eye/ specifically the right nearsighted eye. 2 of our friendliest chickens, their right eye is...
I’m writing an article at school about live cameras and would like a photo of someones coop camera to use. Anyone got a picture you don’t mind being used?
Found your forum while trying to get info on setting up a hunting trail camera just like the one you have. And I shared your site with a friend who has lots of ducks...he'll be signing up tomorrow.
But, for me: I'm having real problems setting up the camera! Small things - like deleting...
How to catch a package thief - and the FedEx- and the UPS-driver…
Since we moved to our new home in Charleston WV, we experienced packages that showed up as »delivered« in the tracking, but actually never arrived. We were long suspecting that the FedEx- and UPS-drivers were dropping off our...
Hi all
We had an opossum in the coop two nights ago, which thankfully did not kill any of our chickens. He got in before we closed the door, and my husband discovered him when he went to lock up. I think he was only there a few minutes at best. He walked in the main coop door; our coop is...
First, set your white balance before each session.
If the colors aren't right, the pictures can look muddy.
Getting it right is preferable to correcting the colors in Photoshop.
Use a white piece of cardboard or plastic to calibrate your camera for current light characteristics.
You can zoom in...
Edited footage from yesterday of a drone brought over by a friend during a BBQ get together. Had a bunch more footage of the pigs and goats but you have to join me at Backyard Herds to see them.. lol.
The view is of my Breakfast Egg house and 2 of my breeding houses.
Not very exciting but...
I have a lot of birds. The Peacocks head up to the trees at night and arent prone to predation. The Geese and ducks sit next to the pond and when a predator comes they launch into the water and rarely get nabbed by foxes racoons or possums. I also have chickens that enter the coop at night and...
First, apologies if I am not posting in the correct spot. I tried. Still learning where to post!
OK, I would love to have a cam set up in my coop with a live feed that can be viewed on my (android) phone. Does anyone here know of such a thing? Would love to hear about anything you have like...
