The weather here on the Mull of Kintyre can get very windy so I am extremely pleased with the quality of the cover and also the six fixing straps it has. We shall see how it survives the winter. Hard to believe with the recent rain but on sunny days the hens do like the shade of the cover and are often sitting contentedly in their run.

These pegs are still very efficient and far superior to ordinary tent pegs but I prefer the previous version as these stand out from the ground much further and are easier to trip over - I have done so.

Previously had green covers but although they gave good protection they ultimately let water through into the run below in very heavy rain. The new clear plastic appears to be totally waterproof and in addition allows the run to be bright. Excellent product. I intend using my original green cover for shade on the sunniest days.

This is much improved from the older version, and I am hopeful that this will last longer than the previous thinner version, which perished pretty much in a year. Nicely shaped to be a good fit around the end of the run.

This is the second cube I have bought ,and I must say I am not as impressed with this new one. The design has been changed with too much ventilation added and even though we assembled on a totally flat surface there seems to be quite large gaps around the back panel which leaks. This could be a problem when the weather turns colder with frost and high winds as the cube are housing Poland chickens and can become hypothermic. The ladder is also a problem as it is not long enough and we have had to make a wooden ladder for them to go to bed.Overall though the door has been made bigger and is much easier to get in to restock food and water and it's an absolute gem to clean out.

I had to replace the original triangular cover as it had not only rotted but been pecked to pieces by crows...this one is not only much sturdier but also covers much more of the run. (I also put another type of cover over part of the run nearest the eglu, leaving just a little open to the sky). - I think this new cover is much better as although my chickens free range over the garden, I think they prefer a larger cover when in the coop and it's raining and especially when it snows, or the frost is heavy, as they don't like walking on the snow/frost! The other cover is merely a sun shade and not really a cover. Hopefully this one will stand up to the elements - and the crows!

Very good item, nice and sturdy. I don't know how far down inside the hens could get their heads if it wasn't kept topped up. Install and then fill with hose, don't try to fill and then install, like I did!

the chickens love it......and look skyward when it rains in the knowledge that they can keep dry

Really pleased with the clear cover for my eglu classic, it means the girls can shelter from extreme weather but it isn't too dark and I can still see them! I waste a lot of time just looking at the chickens!

Useful extension is functional and attractive. Did not contain instructions about how to fit it which made the process take longer.
