It would be interesting if you attached an image of the sliding door you have installed and how you connected the stepper motor. Do you wind the door up with a string wrapped around the output shaft or do you have a screw drive or what?
What type of stepper motor and how powerful is it?
Stepper motors are usually used for precision positioning such as for a printer or robotic arm so unless the door is to have multiple positions, not just up or down, a stepper motor seems a strange choice over a cheap dc motor.
Once it is all working smoothly then I would think about the sensors or clock to control when it opens or closes.
I think you also mentioned wanting to count the chickens going in and out?
