Verified Reviews for Eglu Cube® - Large Chicken Coops and Runs
Chicks won’t go into it - even if I leave the back off so it is light inside
Coop was easily constructed and is weatherproof. I leave the door open and they won’t go in, even with treats on the stairs and inside (they eat the treats on the stairs but not inside). The older 2 birds have taken a break from laying (which is good under the circumstances). The tunnel run means that if they do lay an egg in the run I will have to crawl through chicken poop to recover it. They had no problem with my old coop and covered nest boxes.

Fantastic house for backyard chickens!
Very happy with our purchase. Surprisingly easy to put together, instructions are easy to follow. Our hens accepted the new "residence" very quickly, all things considered. Had to help them get into cube for the first couple of days but now they've got the hang of it and are quite happily putting themselves to bed each evening. And it is very easy to clean, which makes that whole process much more pleasant. All in all, an awesome product, highly recommended!

Easy to clean
We bought this about a month ago. We have been using it to integrate 4 new chickens that are about six weeks old when we put them in there. They clearly love being able to run around with that much space and still be safe from the other 4 adult hens. Easy to clean. The food and water containers work great too!

love the coop, but the wheels...
We are happy with the coop, but the wheels are narrow and a sloppy fit on the axles. This makes it more difficult to roll on uneven ground. I am looking for wider wheels from a local hardware store to accommodate for this problem. Winter snow conditions here in Iowa may increase the difficulty...

Great Coop
We are first time pet chicken keepers and we love the Eglu Cube. We purchased it around 5 months ago with a run and fencing to keep them contained. After a few days we found that the chicks stayed within a short range of the coop so we let them free to roam the garden until bedtime. My only criticism is the open plan egg laying area, it is large enough for three chickens but they really don't don't like sharing!. If there's already a chicken in the laying area then all hell breaks loose and one of them goes off to lay in the garden. It's kind of fun looking for the eggs in the garden but for those who can't let their chickens out it would be headache, separate single laying areas would be much better!.

I WOULD PAY HALF THE PRICE FOR WHAT I GOT
I hate leaving reviews like this, simply because I just usually swallow it and don't leave one. But I paid $1,300 for a large coop/extended fence + auto door that I simply do not like nor am impressed with it. I thought I would try something new and different & I just should not have. It was SUCH a pain to put together, though the instructions were very clear and well pictured. This is not a one man job & took approximately 5hrs. I thought I would give my chickens a couple weeks before I left an honest review and I don't think they like it either, they never go into the actual coop. Since I bough the extended fence, it takes 2 people to move the "tractor" across our yard, which is fine, I just thought it would have a little more structure for a one man show. The little clips that hold the skirt on are already busting off..so I know this will not last me long term. I will continue to replace them with the ones left over.
I am just going to have to keep it since I paid so much money for it and it was such a pain to put together. If you have a nice little coop and looking for something different, please continue to look. For $1300 you could get SO much better and it would last SO much longer. I invested in this coop because I thought it would be worth the $1300 but after getting it, I would have only paid $500 for what I got.
Sorry for the rant, just please do more research before purchasing.

Love that they are safe
I love that my chickens are safe. But mostly I love the cleanup! The coop is so easy to clean. Great investment highly recommend. I have four large Rhode Island Reds in the Cube and they have plenty of room. I actually could get a few more chickens if I want to :). I love the feeling of being able to go to work and know that they'll be safe while I am not home.

Good design
The coop is very practical. It is easy to clean and move. It is nice to have the hens in the garden where we can see them and our kids enjoy playing with them.
