Stevie Adams Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I've noticed in the Eglu, there's a bit that says "Webcam", does anyone know if it's possible to install a webcam inside the Eglu. If so, can anyone offer any advice on where to purchase the webcam and how to set it up? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Chick Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 You'd need a night vision one really to get the benefit Lots of people have webcams on their chickens... like us Apologies that the runs are such a state at the moment I nastily burnt my hand, and have to keep it uncovered, so am on minimal cleaning duties for a few weeks Edit - looking at the run on the webcam, I have shamed myself into cleaning the runs big run has had a full clean out, babies run has had a rake over and disinfect (as that's wood chip) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Adams Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 Oh wow, that's really good! I've spent a good few hours having a look at all your girls past and present Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kissinuk Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 If you already have a wireless router than an IP camera is the way to go - it will connect to your router and you can record images etc onto your pc (or an external hard drive without a pc in some cases). I believe you can get night view ones too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKMARCH Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Wow that's great I'd love one maybe you can get one and view it on your iphone too, I would like one so I can see if one of mine who lays weak shelled eggs actually eats any pellets!

SteveC Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Can anyone recommend a good webcam for chicken watching? Something wireless with a good range would suit me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
