Eglu Go Up - Chicken Coop for 3 Large Hens

While the strong materials and thought out design makes it extremely hard for predators to get to your pets, no coop is 100% predator proof. Check the coop and run regularly to make sure all features are working as intended, including latches, doors and run clips.

If you live in an area with lots of predators, including small ones like martens and weasels you might want to consider adding extra protection to your run.

The metal chicken runs are designed to be used outdoors for years to come. However, we recommend that you check the run regularly for signs of corrosion, especially if you live somewhere with extreme weather conditions or close to the sea. Corrosion will occur if the coating has been scratched or scraped for example. If you do see some, remove any loose rust and touch up with a weather resistant paint. If you have covers on your run and experience heavy snowfall it's advised you clear the snow off the roof to avoid the panels being damaged from the weight.

While the Eglu Go does not have traditional wooden perches, it does have specially designed perches with a structured surface and rounded corners for the chickens to sleep comfortably on at night.

Roosting bars allow the chickens to grip onto something while they sleep, which makes them feel safe and comfortable. Although they don’t look like traditional wooden perches, roosting bars are great for larger breeds who find it tricky to jump up to a raised perch, or recently rescued hens who don’t have the strength to flap, and the shape of the bars makes sure most of the droppings fall straight onto the slide out, easy clean tray underneath.
