Cuckoo Condo Features...all about the temperature.

 Polar Vortex this Week... It's a crazy cold week here in PA, like many states in the middle of the country and much of the north. This has me frequently checking on the temperature at the coop.

 Lacrosse Technology Weather Station

Temp at 11:07 PM




This is installed under the eave of the coop roof with an anemometer installed on the top. We get the general weather conditions around the coop.

Temp at 11:07 PM (oops, time is off on the display)


In the run is a remote sensor that I picked up at our local Tractor Supply. Helpful to know that the run, probably because of the panels and being under the coop, is a few degrees warmer than the surrounding temperature. 🙂

Temp at 10:00 AM

And then in the coop is a wifi Lacrosse Technology Sensor for the temperature and humidity. What helps here is that it's tied to an app and collects data for trends. It can get very dusty in the coop!
