Stream #5 Squirrel Wonderland Feeders

 Squirrel Wonderland feeders are built to provide safe stress-free environment for squirrels. Shy younger squirrels can hide in hobbit huts, older squirrels can pick food from the open feeders and all squirrels will enjoy peanuts dispensed automatically by the feeder.

Please use !feed and !points chat commands to dispense peanuts! 

Superchat messages will give squirrels even more nuts to enjoy! (and support squirrel nest renovations and food)

!feed command is using in-chat currency

Use !points to check your balance - you get currency for every chat message (If you want to "farm" more points, please go to our bird feeder here http://youtu.be/wd3LARNXDlg)

Channel Q&A 

[Real-time smart streams]: Our streams switch views when new animals are detected on cameras inside or near the nest: following squirrels as they move from the nest to nest tunnel and then sit on the branches near the nest. 

[Safe nests]: All nests are built to promote healthy life of squirrel occupants. We use solid wood, hide sharp nails behind wire mesh and add predator baffles. We clean and disinfect nests at least yearly. 

[How streams work]: This real-time feature is powered by 200 smart security cameras, 4 network video recorders and 8 computers running smart software: the most tech advanced stream in the world! 

[Why so many cameras?]: Because how else can we follow the life of these beautiful creatures? Mothers adore and pamper their babies, they recognize and greet their children from years ago and siblings remember each other too (as long as their babies are safe).

[Take control!]: On some streams you can take control of live views inside and outside the nests by typing commands in chat (read stream description). 

[Wild squirrels]: We do not domesticate or interact with squirrels in person, nor we approach occupied nests. We do try to protect squirrels from predators: by keeping raccoons and foxes away with smart ultrasound sound alarms and strategically placed fences.

[All donations] and memberships go to nuts and nests for squirrels and birds.  In all years of running our channel, we had just one month (Hana!) when YT & donations covered at least half of what we spend on this project. Cameras and nest maintenance are expensive but fulfilling. Enjoy!
