Automatic opening to egglaying dept.

[Leif]

Have someone created a method for automatically opening the door to the nesting department in the morning?

It somehow defeats the advantage of having the door to the outside opening by itself in the morning, if I still have to open the inner door myself, if I don't want to find the eggs in odd places.

I imagine I close the inner door in the afternoon after collecting the eggs, then some latch engaging on the automatic door when it closes, and getting pushed back when the door opens in the morning.

You can do this by adding an auto door to the partition that separates the nest area from the roosting area.  I have done this and it works perfectly.   This is not an authorised modification.  But it does work.  You ideally install the door on the nest side, as there are issues with the roosting bars on the other side.   Can’t posts any photos right now as I’m away.  You just drill 4 holes in the separator and use the bolts and wing nuts supplied with the auto door.
