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.

This cover is working well in the snow, I brushed soft snow off using a soft bristled paint brush.

This arrived 4 days ago and was fitted within 5 minutes, the chickens were instantly pleased to find their run full of daylight. I am now able to just feed them inside again which reduces the wild birds eating so much of the food!! Yes you do get condensation on the underside but maybe the full green cover had that to but it couldn't be seen and it clears away during the day. Noticed an increase in egg production already 12 eggs in 4 days from 4 hens. Great for the occasions when I need to shut the hens into the run before dusk to keep them safe.

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!

Does exactly what it says on the tin!! No more no less

Purchased as a winter cover bearing in mind the fact that there is less daylight around.. So far so good. Fab easy fit, protects during wind & rain.. confuses the girls who try to eat the raindrops off of it!! Will see how long it lasts ;-)

Since extending my run, I was struggling to work out where to put my feeder, without obscuring my view of my gorgeous birds... the feeder stand was the perfect answer! The birds love the position and also take it turns to perch on top of it! Great product again, thanks Omlet!
