Gave the girls a much lighter run and still keeps them dry . My old green ones were dried out and needed replacement

This works really well and keeps the ground underneath nice and dry so the chicks have somewhere to shelter. We have just had heavy, huge hail stones and the ground under is still dry.

Love, love, LOVE our Eglu Cube. Looks great in the garden, plenty of space for the chickens and easy to move and clean. We also ordered the moveable fencing and this was quick and easy to put up. We ordered 3 hens from Omlet and these arrived happy and healthy and have already provided hours of entertainment! First egg laid after 3 days. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend. We have a wooden chicken coop that we house our guinea pigs in and this cost us £150 18 months ago. The roof has already rotted, loads of nooks and crannys to clean and really difficult to get it to dry in the winter and the ramp broke after a few months. Omlet wins hands down.

I started with a traditional coop. I have a small backyard and it took up most of it. Plus it was hard to clean and not completely predator proof. The Omlet is the BEST!!! Easy to assembly and super easy to clean. It is completely predator proof as well. The run also comes on and off easily. Absolutely, hands down, love this product and would, without hesitation, recommend it.

As we live in a fairly exposed part of the Isle of Man (top of a hill with practically a 360 degree sea view) my biggest concern was how the Eglu would stand up to the extremely high winds we get from time to time. I need not have worried! A week or so we had a storm with winds gusting up to 60 mph - so strong that the garden store containing all the feed etc blew right across the garden. But through it all the Eglu did not budge an inch! It is also of sturdy construction. It was not long before we were visited by Mr R.A.T. who attempted to tunnel under the Eglu at the back. He had obviously tried to nibble his way in but could make no headway at all. So all in all I am totally delighted with my Eglu and secure in the knowledge that, whatever the weather up here, my girls are safe and sound!

I really like the Eglu Go but the nest is too shallow so nesting stuff is lost. Perhaps you could sell/give a ring or something to deepen the nest

I have recently brought an eglu go, i have been keeping chickens for about 4 years now and have had different styles of wooden houses and even a pvc! I wished i had done my home work years ago and brought an eglu go , it is so much easier to clean, i love the back door, it gives so much access and a doddle to clean. My girls dont seem to be a fan of the feeder, although this is not a big deal as they have an emperor feeder in their 4metre by 3 metre enclosure. If i add up the cost of the money i have spent on previous houses i could have 4 eglus in my garden! That would be one or each girl! Never mind i got there in the end ........ I love my eglu.

Having lost two chooks in wooden housing I wanted a house that I could clean out and dry in double quick time. This is a peach! We put ours together and it's not the easiest of flat packing scenarios, however 2-3 hours is all it took. I agree the run is not easy to get into and out of, but it is so easy to move around to fresh ground and we have a lumpy bumpy orchard garden. Plus to keep Foxy Features out I'd recommend buying extra clips and to keep looking for any weaknesses. I do as we live in open countryside and the security aspect of the cube was another deciding factor. In fact Omlet stuff is so good I'm saving for the WIR. If you can collect, I would. We had no bashes owing to us acting as courier. Staff at Omlet were brilliant at packing the car! Just ordered the girls - now have five chooks - an extreme weather jacket. Is it wrong that I am the excited one? If you're hesitating and have the money, don't - just buy! You will not be disappointed. Oh and one more thing, we have cable tied a rubber mat with holes in to our ladder, as for me that is Omlet's Achilles Heel on this design. But their only one.

I bought one of these several years ago now because I have back problems and wanted a chicken house that would last and I could look after without bending and it is still working well. One wheel rusted through eventually, but Omlet replaced both immediately and were very helpful. My only disappointment was that there is no raised perch. Birds perching in front of each other can get pecked so mine tend to sit in the nest box which means I have to clean it out more often. Easy to clean with pressure washer or steam cleaner and importantly I can manage to keep the red mite population down by hand killing them where they hide as nice and visible.

Bought this before i got my 6 chucks. I could not live without it now! After 10 months ive just introduced 5 ex-battery hens. The fence is doing a fine job of keeping them separate but still able to see and get to know each other without too many fights!
