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

We love this coop - equipped with the 9’ run and the auto door and light, the large rain cover and the insulating winter jacket. We’ve used it for two years through blizzards and heat waves. We added an interior magnet temperature gauge to monitor it through seasonal extremes. We park it with the ‘deep litter method’ under shade or tarp cover on the hottest sunny days and in the snowy season. I would recommend shortening the ladder one rung for ease of movement and covering the water from getting litter kicked up in it. We add rubber pans of sand mixed with DE for dust bathing and we binder clip heavy translucent plastic over the whole coop & run under shade tarp to insulate the run in severe cold winds. We zip tie and binderclip a kitty litter scoop and a plastic recycled lettuce container to the back cage of the coop to use cleaning the tray. It’s a great system. We are surrounded by predators: coyotes hawks eagles bobcats fox weasels and bear. No worries because of this coop security!

This coup is so much better than wooden ones, I could not get rid of mites with the wooden coup, although the mites came over to the eglu with the chickens within a week there is no sign of them.

This is my second one. My granddaughters eat so many eggs, I had to grow my flock. With Joe Biden’s economy and the price of eggs, I will recoup my money very quickly 🐔 Thank you Rick 🇺🇸🇺🇸

I had been looking at this product for a while and the price point was an issue for me to begin with, however once I weighed the pros and cons it made sense to buy it, Best purchase ever, it has never been easier to look after my girls and knowing their safe from the weather is very settling.

Robust and well-built. Definitely an upgrade from our previous coop.

If you're committed to chickens it is well worth the investment. Good insulation, excellent security, and I feel it's good for mite resistance as there's no timber for them to live in.

This product sells itself. This is my second pen to purchase in a year. I was so pleased with my Perone and wanted more birds so I bought the second. I am a 59 yr old woman and was able to assemble it myself because of the ease of the design. The design is so simple even if tedious with parts well labeled. They were all there with a few extra screws as well. My one pointer would be to make sure and pay attention to details that are given. The engineering design is incredible and the pieces are so designed as to minimize mistakes. I previously bought a 12 foot pen, but found this a little hard to move and turn. This time I bought a 6 foot and took 3 feet off the 12 foot to make tow 9 foot pens. They work perfectly. I had up to 11 hens in my first pen, but some slept on the ground and all birds were loose in a two acre yard every day. I do think the recommended 6 birds per pen is best. Thanks for this quality product. Whoever designed this knew what would please chickens and the ease of cleaning makes the price very worth it. I love my pens.

I bought the Eglu with the 12ft run. As a first time chicken keeper, let me just say, it's fabulous! I bought it a few months before I actually needed it so I could take my time and put it together when I had a few minutes here and there. It wasn't difficult to put together by myself, even though having an extra set of hands would have come in handy at times. I move it easily every other day so there's minimal destruction to my lawn and the girls always have a fresh patch of grass. It's ridiculously easy to clean and it looks great! So glad I did my homework before purchasing a coop!

This is my second Eglu Cube, so pleased with the first one I bought a second!. It has eliminated any signs of red mite that traditionally have found my chicken coop. Eggcellant products

These coops work great for my needs. I live in the suburbs with a very small yard. These don’t take up a lot of space and still allow my hens have the space under the Eglu coop as part of their run space. I have 10 large hens. 5 for each Eglu Cube (but they could hold a couple more each). They are amazing in the cold weather - my Eglu stayed above freezing inside even when it was in the 20’s outside. My only concern is the summer. I live in the South and it’s pretty hot here (in the low 100’s now). The coop gets too hot. I have the coops in a run that is covered with tarps. I wish there was a way to add additional ventilation (windows/openings) for better circulation in the extreme heat. Other than that, they are perfect, solid coops that I can’t imagine anything (maybe a large Grizzly) being able to get inside of it.
