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

This is exactly as I expected. A well insulated, easy to clean hen house that even looks great!

I bought the this product a week ago and although it took longer to construct than anticipated. It certainly helped having the video. It seems a little expensive but when you see the quality of the cube and how well it is packed and speed of delivery it is definitely worth it. Congratulations to the design team in it . Our chucks are very happy and laying eggs from day one. Thank you.

I put off buying one of these for ages because of the cost (despite having seven hens). I thought I might be able to cope with two coops, instead of one big one. That was a pretty stupid idea, because it meant cleaning out two coops instead of one. So in the end, I cracked (if you'll excuse the eggy pun) and bought my Cube. It is FABULOUS. Well worth the money. The separate nest box means the eggs tend to be cleaner (you can close it off at night when the chickens are roosting), and the pull-out tray means emptying droppings on a daily basis is easy. There is plenty of room for all the hens, and they all seem very happy. I don't have the built-in run - my Cube is inside an extended walk-in run. Yes, this is an expensive solution, but if you are older (like me) and you have any arthritis issues (like me) it makes caring for your hens a pleasure rather than a pain. Building the coop was fairly easy - the worst bit was putting the sides and the roof on because you have to climb inside. You do need two people, and it took my sister and I about three hours to do it, mainly because it was pouring with rain and we kept stopping for a tea break.

Bought this after seeing a friend with the same. Super speedy delivery. Relatively straight forwards build (although I would argue 1-2 hours longer than stated). Coop itself is brilliant, very sturdy, easy to use, chooks seem to like it. Great peace of mind knowing they are safe at night. Next time- I will definitely buy the automatic door. And I will definitely get a run extension as the 2m standard run is tiny. Otherwise, love it!

My 9 year old is High Functioning Autistic, and has been hyper-fixated on eggs since he was just a toddler. I found out this past fall that he has wanted chickens his whole life, and never said anything because he never thought he would be able. I have never seen him as happy as I did when he received his chickens for Christmas. Fast forward to the coop, after a lot of research we went with the Omlet Eglu. Some of our favorite perks so far: -The cleaning is a breeze. - It stays cool during the day, and warm at night - The chickens can not perch on the included food/water dishes in a way that their bathroom debris ends in the dishes. - Love the ease of access to every component of the coop. - It is so user friendly, that my son can operate everything by himself. He likes to bring them to a new patch of grass and interact with “his girls”. This morning he was even IN the coop. - Free fertilizer as they are moved around the lawn! We are adding a 3 foot extension and handles because chicken math is real, and I’ve ordered a few other accessories to keep our hens happy.

I bought the Eglu chicken coop in green, after a few days my chickens loved it, still a bit unsure of the ladder, they will work it out. It was so easy to put together took about an hour, and so easy to use. Thanks for such a good product.

I have seen these on videos and always thought I had no need as a large homesteader. I have lots of chickens so why would I need such a small run. But last year a predator was able to take out 11 of my young chickens a mother was raising in the coop. Now, I have two of these coops and I will be buying more. They are perfect for a broody mom and her babies. They are also perfect for young chicks once they are old enough to leave the brooder. When they are young I can fit a bunch of them in one Omlet. By the time they start to outgrow the Omlet they are ready to go into one of the main chicken areas. It's so easy to move around the yard and they are safe from predators. I will be getting another one to raise my young turkeys as well.

I would have given 5* if it hadn’t been so difficult to put together. Please allow several hours. Once up, however, it’s excellent, very sturdy and well made.

We have an Eglu already for our Marans and it's just right for them. It is so easy to clean, great for laying (once they had training eggs in it), and with a useful space underneath. I'd read that Silkies didn't make it up the ladder, so am pleased to see that that is not true. At least, now with ours. Thankfully, given the low temperatures right now, we have the extreme weather cover, as little ones are more vulnerable. It's kept them toastie.

Having bought several wooden chicken houses which in time leaked, I’m hoping the Eglu will last longer. It certainly looks robust and waterproof. Very pleased with my purchase. Chickens adapted very well in a couple of days as the steps were much steeper than they were used to. Very happy chucks.
