Best thing we ever did - apart from getting the chickens themselves that is :)
No more super early mornings and if we/re out at night, I know they are safe. We set it for abt half an hour -45 mins before/after sunset/sunrise to make sure we're not changing the timer every week, and I disable it so it stays open constantly when it's this hot so they get air in the coop (they are in a secure area - I wouldnt do this if there was any fox danger). I'd definitely advise this as a top purchase.

This is something I plan to install when I get my next batch of chickens. The self-opening door will be located away from prevailing winds that could seal it with slush/freezing snow in winter months. I plan to get the door that slowly opens and closes rather than some I've seen that come down fast like a guillotine. chicken dinner anyone?

Don't know if I can mention brands but I bought the  chickengard one and it is fantastic. Loads of functions and waterproof....  Easy to use  and to adjust..
