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

We first got 4 FSFH highline rescue chickens in October 2020 and got hold of a used Eglu Go Up off Ebay. It has done well so far but now we have 2 additional White Sussex Chickens it got a bit cramped for the remaining 3 FSFH hens. So Decided to get a eglu cube and when it was on 20% off during Black Friday thought stupid not to get one. Luckily Only needed just the coop itself as the girls have a 4m x 3m polytunnel covered run and the coop sits in a old 6x6 greenhouse so secure from the foxes. Coop was a doddle to put together. Watched the video on You Tube and put the brackets on the panels first inside the house and then put it together in situ. Took about 1hr to put together with supervision from the girls as they wanted to check out their new accommodation. The girls love having more space which now means we can get some more chickens!!! One thing to note though as we got the purple Mk2 Cube is that is more pink than purple. The included Glug & grub's are purple but the coop is definitely pink!

Once put together this coop is brilliant. Easy to clean, easy to add the food and water. The door and the egg box sliding door both work a treat. We did have several instruction sheets which didn't appear to be the same. Wouldn't recommend putting it up on a freezing cold day in a gale. However it is worth the effort!! It's much sturdier than previous coops and well worth the money.

I’m really happy with my new Eglu and so are my chickens! They settled into it straight away. Building the Eglu took two people 4 hours so much longer than you are made to believe on the website.

I waited to buy this hen house due to the price and saved for it. I'm so happy I did! Once I ordered it I was so delighted. Its so easy to clean, the hens love it and I know I have bought a henhouse I will have for many years. Don't second think it, buy Eglo!!!

There is a bit of a learning curve putting this together, largely because the instruction manual has very few words in it and the individual fixtures (screws, nuts, bolts) aren't labelled, but once you get the hang of it it goes together well. I have 3 relatively plump chickens in this coop and I'd say I could probably fit 4-6 more, if I cared to. They love it and started going in on their own immediately after I got it set up for them. VERY glad I got the coop light addition, both for my girls and because it made the last stages of assembly much easier. Don't short yourself by buying cheaper coops: this is worth the investment.

Every bit as good as I had hoped. Strong, lovely colour and the chickens are very happy. Easy to assemble, easy to clean and looks like red mite problems are all sorted. Bliss!

We had a problem with our Auto door control panel clock which meant that the door was not opening or closing when it should. The control panel then would only turn on for 4 seconds and then nothing! Changed the batteries, factory reset etc with no luck. Rang Omlet on Monday mid morning and by Tuesday 4pm a replacement panel had been delivered and by 4.15 all was well with the door again. Thank you for such prompt and excellent service.

After much research I decided to purchase the Eglu with a 3 metre run, the wheels for moving the coop around and also the automatic door. Very happy with the product! So easy to clean- it only takes me 5 minutes. Being able to move the coop is handy in order to give the hens fresh ground to fossick in. Auto door also great!

I bought this a few weeks back to replace a storm damaged wooded coop. Really easy to assemble and looks great. Some nice features which make it easy to clean. Pay special attention if you are fitting an automatic door. It changes some of the fixtures! Overall, really pleased and hope this lasts a long time as its really expensive!

Arrived promptly and went together without problems using the video instructions and the help of my daughter. Our ex battery hens have after 5 months have shown no real inclination to perch and have preferred ton huncker down in the soft bedding in the old coop. We hoped the igloo might help them to learn to perch and help make sure no chest infections. We seem to have rather slow learners! After three nights in the coop I came to check on them to find one had managed to open the nest box door and five fast asleep in the nesting area with number six huddled up to the door. (Pic-attached ) I assume I had left door not quite shut. The ladder is a challenge for them so have put a stool beside it for them. Am hoping they will adapt as time goes on. None of which is anything to do with the quality of the coop just our rather strange but gorgeous ex batts We have the coop in a shed so they are not cold just prefer to cuddle in the bedding which I have to clean everyday to make sure not sleeping on damp bedding and was one of the reasons for buying Omlet. Fingers crossed they will get used to it.
