"Works well! We just moved into a new house that came equipped with a chicken coop. Starting off small with 4 chickens. I don't let them free range without supervision but it's great to just watch them every now and then, especially at night."

"I guess I didnt realize this does not work with android at all. How ridiculous is that."

Bottom Line

If you have a smaller property and are looking for a reliable way to monitor your poultry, the Smart Coop WiFi Cam is a good investment. However, be prepared for potential setup issues and consider the ongoing subscription cost.
