[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 326427, member: 968"] Bullpeddler - there are many systems that will easily work at that distance. Since my barn is soooo close, I can use this el-cheapo model. First camera & receiver were about $150 and each add'l camera was about $100. Made for a reasonably priced Christmas gift. (for me :P :P ) There are systems that you can watch what is going on from any computer (work/home/etc). I would imagine they have quite a price tag. Not only is it good for me ( :D ) it is also great for the cow in labor. Previously, every 30 minutes or so, I would be sneaking out to see her progress. Of course, she would see me, jump up & delay process for another 10 minutes. And, when they calve, if you go out, cow gets moving around & calf has a harder time nursing. This way, they are NEVER disturbed. Process goes much quicker. Of course if you are in a situation that you don't need to calve indoors, you may be able to observe from a distance. With our weather, I don't DARE calve outdoors. [/QUOTE]
