I'm looking for recommendations on a small chicken coop roosting area camera. Looking for a cam that works with blue iris and has a fairly wide fov. I will run a poe ethernet cable to power it. doesn't need to be 4k, 1080p would work just fine looking for low cost option but the roosting area is very small and want to mount the camera inside it. It would need to be a fairly wide fov i'm thinking 110 degree or higher and low profile since space is very limited. any recommendations out there? this is the coop I have i'll have to measure the roosting area dimensions.

looking at something like this. anyone use something similair?

I’ve been using one of the flat Dahua fisheye cameras for years — I originally got it pretty cheap on AliExpress: IPC-EW4431-ASW. Andy’s shop sells the current version of it here: EmpireTech IPC-FE541-AS
The flat, smooth design is great because the chickens can’t injure themselves on it.
