For the last several weeks out at the farm, we’ve been trying to set up a new camera system for the barn. Eight cameras, one over each pregnant mare, broadcast across the farm network to the house, where Mom can keep an eye on them all using an iPad (there’s also an app for my phone so I can peek in too). DrQuuxum got the last bug out of the system for us yesterday, and things will be operational for foaling season. All that’s left is to bury the cable connecting the house and the barn, currently it’s strung from window to window.
