HenGear AutoRoost 2.0 | Automatic Nest Box Roost Bar Opener

Are you weary of rising early every morning solely to open the roost bar on your nest box so your hens can begin laying?

Ensuring your hens have access to their nest box first thing in the morning is critical to maintaining their regular egg production cycle and overall wellness. But who wants to sacrifice precious sleep just to complete this minor daily task?

At last, this chore can be handled automatically with the HenGear AutoRoost 2.0, allowing you to rest easy knowing your hens are stress-free and have immediate access to their nest box—so they can start laying clean, unbroken eggs without you having to wake up early.

Sleep-in. AutoRoost comes pre-programmed to open at 4:00am EST (with the ability to adjust the time if desired). No programming required to get started.

How It Works

  1. Install the AutoRoost, spring, and bracket to your nest box.
  2. Connect the power cord to a standard 120V electrical outlet, or purchase the optional 12V Solar Panel (sold separately).
  3. After collecting eggs each day, raise the roost bar on your nest to keep hens from nesting overnight and creating a manure mess.
  4. Once the roost is lifted, the bracket will firmly attach to the AutoRoost due to its powerful magnet.
  5. Your nest box opens automatically in the morning—ready for hens to begin laying clean, unbroken eggs.

Compatibility

  • Designed to work for front or rear rollout nest configurations

Note: Older nest box models may require slight drilling modifications.

Includes

  • Roost bar spring
  • Roost bar bracket
  • AC power cord

Why Buy from Us

Why Buy From Gone Broody?

Real help. Practical guidance. No high-pressure sales pitch.

Gone Broody was built for customers who want more than a product page and a Buy Now button. We specialize in poultry products, from everyday flock supplies and incubation equipment to chicken coop kits, fully assembled coops, and large custom builds.

More importantly, we actually help you sort through the options. We’ll talk through your flock, your property, your goals, and your budget and help you find the product that makes the most sense for how you actually keep chickens.

We’d rather help you buy the right thing than the most expensive thing.

Real Help From People Who Know the Products

Some purchases are simple. Others involve sizing, customization, site preparation, delivery, setup, or choosing between several very different products. That’s where knowledgeable customer service matters.

Ask questions. Send us a sketch. Tell us what you’re worried about. If a simpler option works better, we’ll tell you. If we think you’re about to outgrow something, we’ll tell you that too.

More Choices. Better Guidance.

Because Gone Broody works with multiple builders, brands, hatcheries, and specialty suppliers, we aren’t limited to recommending one manufacturer’s solution. We can help you compare different styles, materials, sizes, features, and price points and find the best match for your flock.
