Does anyone know of a simple and cheap way to set up a camera in my coop...sad I know but first time expectant mum and I don't want to miss it!

What about one of those cameras that go in blue tit nesting boxes??

I like this idea, it will most probably be better than some of the repeats and pap that is already on the TV, definitely more entertaining

I looked into this awhile ago and it wasnt going to be cheap.

Unless you want to hardwire a cam into the coop that is and then its not so bad.  The wireless cams are quite pricy!

Great idea though

Maybe I need to go onto a techi forum!

I know mum will hide a lot of what is going on, but I still want to see....it's going to be a very long 21 days!! lol

I bought an £8 wired infra red camera from Lloyds the chemist in a sale. Great for checking the hens on tv before going to bed on a stormy winters night . Unfortunately the cable will not reach the summer pen but most of it is repeats anyway.
They are more active on the roost than you would expect but i doubt a broody would be.
Worth getting a wireless infra red for the winter checks alone though.

I will definitely have a look into it, I was thinking maybe one of those baby monitors with a screen might work

It will go by quicker than you think
