FOALING STALL CAMERAS

This is just a "have to share" thing.  Radio Shack has a 2.4 GHz wireless surveillance system for $150 that includes a camera and a receiving monitor that we use to monitor our foaling stalls.  You can buy extra cameras, as the monitor will work with up to 4 cameras at the same time.  It is clear as a bell, though we are a good 200 feet from the barn (it says it will work up to 300 feet).  Wireless cameras don't go through tin siding very well, but we cut a small  3"X3" hole at the top of the wall by the camera and covered it up with Plexiglas (you can even paint the Plexiglas the same color as your barn to hide it) to keep the camera dry.  It doesn't have a very wide angle lens, but for the price has been well worth it.

More info about installing it from an e-mail I sent to someone: 

Yes, for the money, that monitor is WELL worth it!  It doesn't have a very wide angle lens, but to get that kind of camera takes a couple hundred more dollars, so we're making this one work.

The main problem we had with the camera (getting it set up) was due to our barn's siding being tin/metal, and the house being stucco.  The stucco is applied to a metal mesh, and radio waves from all the video monitors won't go through metal.  So what we did was put the camera up high in the stall, by the roof, and we cut a small square--about 6" x 6"--in the tin.  We covered that opening with a small square of the white fiberglass or plastic stuff that is in the floodlights of metal buildings (those parts that let light through), because the signal can go through wood, plastic, and glass.

Then we made sure to put the camera right next to that plastic piece on a small shelf (attach the camera to it so it can't fall off) so it could point toward the house (about 250-300 feet away).  Inside the house, since our house is stucco, we had to put a table by a window and put the monitor on the table, since the signal can't go through the metal mesh in the stucco.  If you have the antenna pointing toward the camera and it doesn't come in, raise/lower the TV monitor up and down, because you'll hit the signal if you move it vertically.  My friends who have a regular house with either wood or vinyl siding get their signal right through a wall, so if you don't have stucco, you'll have a much easier time finding the best reception.

We put a small light (an 18" fluorescent light that is intended to go above a kitchen sink) high up in the stall, and it provides adequate light.  But another idea is to put a string of Christmas tree lights (the indoor kind whose bulbs don't get hot, or else the ones that are inside the clear plastic tube) all the way around the stall.  It doesn't take a lot of light, but the better your light is, the better you'll see. 

And even WITH the camera, we missed two foals who foaled while I was eating breakfast or in the shower.  Those two mares were QUICK!
