@Tevyes Dad He has one for his ducks
Since I put the secure kennel in (which surrounds the ducks' door), I just leave the door open and we let the ducks into the kennel manually (they can go in and out of the house as they please). When I was using it, it worked well except for once when it didn't open for some reason (never happened again). Because of that, we lost a duck (Our duck house wasn't made for them to be in it through the mid-day heat). So I fully appreciate an automatic door for the convenience of letting the birds out from bed / remotely, but make sure you actually monitor that it works and have a back up plan if your house isn't made for them to be able to be inside all day.
