Verified Reviews for Omlet Outdoor Guinea Pig Run
Excellent idea, very sturdy
I bought these recently to secure the side of our Cube run and walk in cage as we have a real fox problem :(
They are very sturdy and keep the skirt of the run an cage really secure.

Omlet screw pegs
Good, I need a lot more of them though to go around our 12 foot run off of our eglu cube.

Omlet great for pocket pets
I have had the pleasure of the company of a number of Guinea pigs and rabbits who have lived in a number of different homes we have made or purchased. The Eglu Omlet homes are by far the absolute best! Easy to clean, move, and provide water, food. The system is superb. The stress of the hot and cold weather is also manageable with the insulated house, covers and open runs. Our Guinea pigs have never been so peaceful and friendly. Instead of hiding, they confidently move around the enclosure, come up to the wire to chat, and generally enjoy the large open space. The tunnels are a favourite for both Guinea pigs and rabbits. Our Flemish giants fit through the tunnels with ease. We are all so very grateful for such incredible design and options. The accessories sold separately keep the old Eglu hutches new with clean bottles and new covers.

awesome purchase and I even purchased another bag for miscellaneous items, such as a bird water, fountain, and standing birdhouse. The screw pegs are very secure, and holding down these items that are made of polycarbon as well as the omletbitems.

6x9 Run for Guinea Pigs
We have the 6x9 run for guinea pigs and we LOVE it. It is time consuming to put together, but using zip ties in lieu/as well as the removable brackets they give you will speed things up considerably. I like the clear covers for winter but the darker covers for summer so it doesn't get too hot.
Things to note:
• This has a "skirt" that goes on the ground to keep predators from digging under. I am not sure if this would be enough if you had a motivated fox. Our run is inside our garden which is surrounded by no climb horse fencing. On the outside of the garden fence, there's electric chicken netting. So we are unlikely to have a predator issue inside this area. But I would have done further predator-proofing if I was placing this in another area.
• I purchased the Eglu and connector so the guinea pigs would have a warm zone to go if the weather gets cold (we're in Maryland).
• The Zippi platforms don't work with this- I wish they did!
• The roof is strong, but it's not strong enough to hang a waterer from (I wouldn't attempt to do this). If you have a heavy snow load, you'll probably want to brush some of the snow off. We don't get much snow so I haven't tested this yet.

Very easy to install!
I bought this to connect an Eglu to the guinea pig run. It worked well and keeps everything connected. My only issue is that the screws sometimes come loose from my kids being rough, getting the tray in and out of the Eglu. But it's easy to screw the piece back on if it comes off.

Keeps predators from flipping up the outside skirt
These have worked great and are thick plastic so they do not break easily. May take a bit more time to screw into the ground, but I don't need to get my mallet to hammer tent stakes any more. And there's a drill attachment to make screwing these in faster which I haven't used, but I bet it works great too. Keeps predators from digging under the zippi skirts by keeping the skirt pieces tight to the ground.
