| What do you recommend for barn cameras? I'm looking for a camera that works well via wifi and in dim light. Luckily, my barn is only about 30 feet from my front door.
After my horses got run through the fence, I finally figured out that a dog has been getting in their stalls with them (dog toy IN one of my horses stalls). Best part, the horse has been hurt for a few weeks. So this has definitely been happening fairly regularly.
Thanks! |

Location: Kansas | No ideas on security cameras, but I will be interested in the answers you receive.
I would ask what kind of stall doors you have that would allow a dog to get into a stall. I would suggest a solid stall door. |

| The stalls open into runs, so it probably just came through/over the fence. The outside of our property is field fence, so they would have to jump over or find a way through to get onto our property to begin with. I just want to know where the dog is coming from so I can talk to
the owners. |

Location: California | I have a nest camera in my barn and it works great. It runs off of WiFi and works perfectly with no lights on. It also records sound and you can talk through it. It’s very easy to watch on your phone as well. I can never post pics on here but would be happy to send some to you through email if you’d like to see the image quality. |

I looked at their website....wondering if yours records and what the cost is to save those videos to "the cloud" as it says. I am looking for something to use for a broodmare stall. |

Location: Washington | I got some cheapies off Amazon, on their black friday sale. So far I like them. They are Zmodo, you can go to zmodo.com.
The barn one works great it's well within wifi reach but my arena one is hit and miss but is in a weird spot for wifi and cell service. They have the night vision option, up to like 30' and have the sound and can talk through them, but I dont have a mic on my computer. You need a android device to download the app to get them running/set up but then you can view from your computer. That is only thing I can fault them for so far. I'll try to attach photos.

The camera was $199 to buy and then to get around 10 days of video it costs about $50 a year. It is really easy to make clips from the recorded video to save.
