You know at Christmas time there is a fire place channel and every once in a while there is a hand that throws a log on the fire. People actually watch this. So I was thinking that to celebrate spring time there should be a hen cam channel. We set the channel to an actual hen. Perhaps start with just a next box where a hen stops by once a day to lay a new egg. When she starts to set, a timer on the bottom of the screen starts with "days until hatch". I may be crazy, but if people are willing to watch a fire place with the odd hand creeping in to stoke the fire, people will certainly watch a broody hen. The exciting part of every day will be when she gets up off the nest for a poop and inhale as much food as she can in 30 seconds and back to the nest. The world will watch as the new babies enter the world. I think it could be a hit....

Ok, I had 4 hours alone in a vehicle with only a radio and my thoughts. This was the good idea I came up with. I will keep the rest to myself.

The yule log fire caused some excitement in Regina last week. They had the yule log fire on the large screen at the football stadium. The fire department received calls that the stadium was on fire. The yule log fire was replaced.

The chicken cam could include advertising spots for poultry feed, and poultry equipment. The food stores could have ads for "fresh" eggs and chicken.

Don't forget they have the rabbits at Easter too, so why not?

I would totally tune in for that.

Some horse breeders run foaling cams that are hugely popular, with everyone tuning in for mare watch!

Now I am disappointed that I haven't actually come up with a new idea. I don't have the technology to "produce" the show in the end, but thought it was a cool idea. I just may tune it to the kitten cam though. You just need to get a kitten fix from time to time.

Way to go, we all broke Bowker's heart!

Bowker, I think this is a great and ORIGINAL idea.

Oh, BA! We didn't mean to break your heart, dash your hopes , rain on your parade, or make your four hour drive worthless!

You just go right ahead and create a hencam. I will watch it, and make Doug watch as well!

I maintain that the "hen" portion of the live feed camera is original. I've yet to see a chicken cam site!

Fortunately, I am pretty thick skinned. Would take a lot more than that to break my heart. I still think someone should do it though. I am technically challenged, so it certainly would not be me. I think I would make hubby watch though, just to drive him batty!
