Low Bandwidth View - This View Refreshes Every 5 Seconds:
4-H EGG Cam Viewing:
For slower connections:
The view at the top of the page is low bandwidth with a 5 second refresh rate. If you are on a dial-up or slower connection, this is your best view.
For high speed connections:
High bandwith view. This is the best view if you have a high speed connection. If you open this link, and it is blank - there's a limited number of people who can view at one time. Check back. We are working to improving the high bandwidth streaming so many people can watch at once (hopefully before the eggs hatch). We'll keep you updated!
Teachers: If you are unable to see the view, check with your school's media resource specialist. They can help you set the page up for your classroom.
