Brilliant! It might be worth it to just get the drapery motor.

I am thinking so to. It looks like it uses a AC to DC transformer so I should be able to run it off a battery. I don't want to run a long cord to the coop.

In that case, an old power window or wiper motor would do. It would just be a matter of fabricating a pulley.

I think that the drill will work. I already have them. I would like to have a photocell to activate it.

I found the cordless drills that can be donated for door openers.
We worked on one end. Large door for coop cleaning. ![]() We got another tractor today. Will start a new thread since I think its a keeper.

Chickens are never sequestered. Good investment.

They don't get furloughed either. They are all still alive this morning.
Took me awhile to get their box to the right temp.
