Verified Reviews for Eglu Cube^® - Large Chicken Coops with Runs

Bought as spares to make cleaning each day easier and quicker. We have been very happy with the cube and the hens seem happy too...

So far I am loving this Eglu, it took a while for me to put together, but mostly because I put it together in stages as I was very busy. Once I got it together it has been great. My chickens realize it keeps them safe and will hang out inside the run even at times when they have the option to run around and free range. I think the real test will be taking apart the run for when we move. But I am pretty sure it won't be hard at all.

Really pleased with my eglu which I brought second hand as new. I would like to say I use it for my rescue warrens hens. It is easy to clean, but I would like to soak the roosting bar as I find it a real mess to clean and I get splashed all over - and get back ache scrubbing it. Come on Omlet come up with a idea so I can soak the roosting bar - it doesn't seem you sell roosting bars separately for the cube? Also they find the metal ladder a problem getting in and out ! I've had to make one out of an old scaffold board and roofing felt !

The Eglu Run Handles are a must have if you are wanting to move the EGLU around easily. They prevent you from bumping your ankles on the longer assembled runs. The handles install quickly and can be turned outward or inward. They can also be positioned on the run to match your comfort height or position.

I have a mark 1 and now a mark 2, both with 3 metre runs. Mark 2 is very neat, I like the roof door handle plus slightly lower height so it is easier to operate from either side, and the new back door. I appreciate the new improved wire skirting, the rounded corners don’t trip you up, nor dig in when you move the whole unit thanks to the reinforcing strips. We are looking at putting reinforcing strips onto the mark 1 skirt to improve its manoeuvrability. Not sure about the horizontal split in the run sides and two piece door, the mark 1 seems sturdier and you don’t have so many clips to fiddle with, but then I don’t need to worry about it supporting the weight of a bear. My hens took to the new omlet even before I had finished building it and they like the new ladder, seems to be less of an effort for them. They are happily laying eggs in the new less draughty ( smaller draining holes) nest box. We are looking forward to the arrival of the automatic doors in January, no more panicking if I’m late getting home to shut the hens in. Thank you

Arrived on time and took about 2hours to assemble. The chickens are happy with their new home and so are we. Really easy to clean out, no fuss.

I got the cube when I got my first hens and they are very happy in it. It is exceptionally easy to clean. I can easily move it around the garden on my own when the girls need fresh grass. My children find the eggport easy to open and close again and really enjoy collect fresh eggs from their own hens. Very happy with it.

They are great but do make it hard to open the door back for my girls to come in and out for a play. They do make it much easer to move they little house thank you.

I found my run so easy to move that I have never fitted these handles. However they look good and strong.

I am new to the chicken world. I grew up around chickens but never owned any for myself. I live on about 4 acres of property in a country neighborhood and the neighbors dogs get loose every once in a while. I purchased this chicken coop and could not be more pleased with this purchase. This coop keeps all my hens safe during day and night. The coop is easy to clean I just remove the tray and dump everything in my garden. The feeding and water trays hold about 3 days worth of food for 5 chickens. The only flaw I could find +was instructions on construction. There were not enough zip ties to get the job done. I went to the local hardware store and purchased more zip ties for added stability and you will need them with the larger run. The coop moves around my yard with ease. If you are considering this coop pull the trigger on it. You won't be disappointed.
