I'd always had free-ranging hens in the past and eventually they all succumbed to Mr Fox. It was very traumatic and we didn't keep any hens for quite a few years after. This year we decided to go for it again as we really enjoyed having them about the place. We went for a 3x3x2 run which is attached to a mk2 eglu cube. It's great to have a safe space for the girls to spend time in and the height is a massive convenience for us, not having to scramble (sorry, had to get some eggs in somewhere!) about bending down to the floor. I put the run together on my own, lots of concentration and yes I studied the instructions and laid everything out on the lawn and cardboard boxes before starting. It looked daunting to begin with but I did it over two days, so it helped to get going on the second day as I knew what I was doing by then. I can't remember how long it took but it wasn't two full days, just parts of them! It's a clever bit of kit and the height gives lots of scope for branches and we have an old step ladder that Betty likes to perch on the top step. Wish we had this the first time around.

I purchase this product b/c I wanted something durable and easy to clean. This product is definitely both of those things. Easy to put together by myself. Ample room for my 6 small - average sized chickens. Nice to have separate nesting box area that can be cleaned as well. Right now it is attached to a walk in run but in the future I may get a smaller movable run and move it around some in the summer.

I purchased this because I wanted to be able to walk in where the chickens are and let them have ample space. I do not want to free range b/c of predators and this is a great option. Easy to assemble with 2 people. I did add hardware cloth around bottom like others have suggested to further predator proof this (only complaint/drawback). I added a clear tarp to the top to prevent rain from coming in. Chickens are happy!!

I bought this fencing to keep my chickens safe but then decided it would be better used to keep my veggies safe! So now my chicken happily have the run of the garden - except the veg area, which is safely fenced. It works very well. The gate is easy to use, even with one hand (if I'mm carrying tools/veg), and the fencing is high enough to keep the bantams out.

We love our feathery friends and also how easy it is to clean the Eglu!

My husband and I couldn’t agree about the walk-in run. He said the extra height would be much more comfortable when cleaning out the hens and while I agreed I wasn’t sure that was worth the extra few hundred pounds. We have a 2 x 3 x 2 walk-in run attached to the cube. We bought seven new hens although we’ve had hens for the last 12 years. The first thing that we noticed is that they absolutely adore perching! We have both the omlet perch and also a load of branches arranged in a higgledy-piggledy fashion and they really enjoy flying up there. I had no idea how much time they would spend up there and it really extends the floor space as there are often only a couple of hens scratching about on the floor. Unfortunately only a couple of months later Beyoncé the hen has died. We went to collect Lady Gaga yesterday and were aware that introducing one hen to 6 established hens is very tricky. We cleaned out our Eglu Classic ready to keep them separate but the man we bought her from suggested that we give it a go and then just remove her if they weren’t getting on. The height of the walk in run has been excellent for this. We sneaked her in overnight and in the morning whenever she was getting a few too many pecks she would fly up to a perch for a bit of peace and quiet! We have even moved a food and water container up there so that she can stay out of the fray or come down whenever she wants! I’m really pleased that we purchased the extra height of the walk in run. I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anybody with a larger group of chickens as it really does give them more space

Easy to clean and maintain hygiene hens took to it from the first day. Customer service was amazing. Lovely slick design and easy to use on a daily basis

I bought the go up as a first time owner. It went together relatively fast although found the run the trickiest part. The video online is a fab watch before hand. It's super easy to maintain, and the hens took to it well from the get go. I have 4 Warren hybrids and they fit in well enough. It really is a joy letting my children go to collect the eggs everyday. The thing I love about the go up is the additional space under the coop, which they go under if the weather is bad. The go up fits in to a small garden really well even with the extended run. Only thing I am looking at next is the walk in run so I can clean up easier. But overall is super easy to maintain the cleanliness of the overall set up.

I needed a walk-in, raccoon proof run and this has worked perfectly. Even when we're out of town, the chickens can go safely to and from the coop. A little tedious at times with the assembly, but I'm very pleased with the final product.

We fell in love with the Cube coop several years ago at a home show in town, and purchased one in the fall. It is now four years old and still as secure and easy to clean as day one. I strongly recommend the Omlet family of products, and this coop in particular to both veteran and new chicken keepers!
