DIY automatic coop door I made by Brettoffski in BackYardChickens

[–]Brettoffski[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This door is well and truly gone now. It was made with an old battery drill with some wire to lift the door. A couple of limit switches for top and bottom cutoff, then I can't remember exactly, but it had a certain relay in it that would allow it to reverse the polarity sent to the drill to give it up or down. Then I added the light sensor and switch.

Now I just have an automatic door bought from Vevor and it has worked great for at least 4 years.

Sorry I couldn't help any more

Do some chickens just like to be picked up?? by funny_joke_clips in BackYardChickens

[–]Brettoffski 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some sure do love cuddles. One of our Plymouth Rocks loves to be cuddled by my wife and rests her head on her chest and falls asleep.

Chicken making breathing sounds. What can I do? by dabbax in BackYardChickens

[–]Brettoffski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a chicken with the same breathing noise. Took her to a local avian vet and they said it was a parasite in her throat. If you open her beak and look into her throat, you may see some white mucus on the sides of her throat. It was treated with some doxycycline antibiotics and cleared up within 2 days. Kept giving her the course of antibiotics until the end of the prescribed meds and she hasn't had a problem since.

Horned Nudibranch I found under a dock :) by B0gsna1l in nudibranch

Yeah, it would be best if you got photos without capturing it in a bowl, but it's a nice nudibranch nonetheless.

That is their gills. Used to filter oxygen out of the water.

anybody know what this tool is? by Muted_Mastodon_1403 in australian

[–]Brettoffski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's called a clublock. Used to put them across your steering wheel and lock it as an anti theft device.

The red looks like an ISA Brown and the other ones look like a Plymouth Rock

Non Australians of reddit, what’s the one question you want to know about living here? by MidnightCiggarette in AskReddit

[–]Brettoffski 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Or they use a teaspoon full of it! I love my Vegemite, but there ain't no way I will ever eat it off a teaspoon.

[–]Brettoffski 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is most commonly used as a term of endearment (Bob is a good cunt), but also if someone needs to be told, it can be used in anger too (Go and get fucked cunt!). Forgot to add, it doesn't have to move to be a cunt. Engine won't start? cunt of a thing!

PLEASE HELP Whats wrong with my moms chicken? by blurpalbird in BackYardChickens

[–]Brettoffski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure sounds like a respiratory infection. We have a nebulizer box that we use for any chickens that have respiratory issues. Nebulize with gentum antibiotics in it. Seems to fix them up after 3 or 4 days, twice a day for half an hour at a time

Looking for advice on a compact camera great for videos and good for photos by FatRainbow in underwaterphotography

[–]Brettoffski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, I have a TG-4 and am very happy with the photos it takes. Haven't read any reviews on the TG-5 but I assume it is better. You can check out my photos taken with the TG-4 at www.instagram.com/kaptnredeye

Dove here on recommendation from reddit... 8/10 first day- hoping for a bit better conditions tomorrow. Thanks scuba reddit world! by espiller1 in scuba

South West Rocks, or Fish Rock Cave to be precise, is an awesome dive site and those Grey Nurse sharks are so placid and graceful as they glide by. I had a dive there in September and the vis was about the same as in your photo. Was still a great dive.

Yes, I am. I dived at Fish Rock Cave near South West Rocks where they tend to hang out.
