The chickens and ducks are still adapting to the new coop. Here are the ducks heading in tonight 😂. They’re so funny, running around playing too late and the solar door closes. If only they listened to Sandy and went in when he corralled all the hens.

This is really interesting to see how they push up the door while squeezing in. I'm working on a nostr based #chickstr door. This makes me over think the mechanics.
I really like the design, this way nobody hurts themselves, or damages the door 😂. My rooster is a bit shorter, but wider than the white duck, and he is first out of the coop when the door is barely opening, he’s able to get out without hurting himself 👍🏼.
How is your door coming along? The Nostr based part of it is cool.
The mechanicsal part does not work well yet. Nostr is used for failsafe remote monitoring. There are watchdogs following the chicks on nostr. Whenever the door does **not** post that everything worked the watchdogs raise alarm and notify humans via DM.
Does your door work with a string? How is the door locked? Or can you still push it up?
