CoopCam

A security camera for watching over the flock

Hardware & Devices$99
CO

Overview

1080p camera with night vision and motion detection. Sends an alert if it spots a fox, and a different alert if it spots a very large cat.

CoopCam is part of our Hardware & Devices line, and it pairs with ChickenWire Cable and Cluckbook Pro for a full-coop setup. Physical gear for people who need to peck at something real.

Every unit is tested by hand (and by wing) in our Haarlem lab before it ships. If it does not cluck at power-on, it does not leave the barn.

Key features

  • Beak-resistant surfaces rated for 10 million pecks.
  • CoopCam comes in an egg-carton box that doubles as a desk organizer.
  • Made with 62% recycled eggshell composite (not edible).
  • Two-year warranty that covers everything except foxes.
  • Ships with a heat lamp mode for cold mornings and cold builds.

What the flock says

★★★★★ Foghorn F. Principal Architect, Leghorn Logic

It is, in the words of our CFO, "fine, actually good". We have it on tape.

★★★★☆ Priscilla P. Product Lead, Peckish

Four stars because I like to leave room for improvement, and for another snack.

★★★★★ Priscilla P. Product Lead, Peckish

Does exactly what it says. Rare enough that we put it in the all-hands deck.

Frequently asked questions

What is in the box?

The device, a USB-C cable, a quick-start card, a sticker of a chicken in sunglasses, and a tiny scoop of recycled straw as packing material.

Can I repair it myself?

Yes. We publish repair guides and sell parts at cost. Every screw is the same size, because we are not monsters.

What does the warranty cover?

Manufacturing defects, accidental drops, and spills. It does not cover foxes, which we consider an act of nature.
