Great, but still room for improvement!
Danielle, South Holland,
Pro's: - Soooooooo easy to clean! - The box I transported the chickens from their old home (a classic eglu) fitted in the large interior, they started their morning from their new home. And very happy too. - Enough room in the run to get in to get the muck out. - The nesting box being higher up makes it so much easier to get to the eggs and so much easier to clean to. Also seams to take up a lot less space than the Classic does. - Thumbs up all around, chickens love it too! Drawbacks: - The Glug is a bit big for my tiny Dutch Bantams, I keep having to fill it up, I had thought they came with nipples, and was willing to try that. I would like the option of the smaller Glug, as I know that works a treat for the Dutch Bantams. - a daytime roosting bar in the run. I've inserted two old branches and a lenght of wood thru the bars, which they love to perch on. - The cover that comes with the Eglu is made of flimsy material. It should be made of the same sort of material as the heavy duty wind covers, or the Eglu should come with the clear plastic version. There's enough shade under the nesting box, and in a tiny backyard they could do with sun in the rest of the run.

Purple palace!!
Ruth,
The cube is fantastic. We had the wee eglu but upgraded to the cube when we got six hens as there wasnt enough room in wee elu. So much room inside for the hens. Higher off the ground so easier to clean. Large roomy laying box which would easily take 3hens at a time but they go in singly and spread out! Very easy to build it as well. On sunny days the girls sit underneath the cube in the shade. Took them a few days to get used to having to go upstairs to their house but they don't think about it now. Really good product.

First Class
Louise,
Like many I debated for a long time before buying a Cube. We had a wooden coop for 2 years which did the job but I kept coming back to Eglu to read reviews and finally took the plunge and bought one. I am SO glad I did and question why I didn't get one in the first place! It is so easy to clean which is the absolute best bit for me - it used to take me an hour to clean the wooden one and we suffered with red mite on more than one occasion. Yes they are expensive but the resale value is excellent should I ever decide to stop keeping chickens - i know as I missed out on many ebay auctions for second hand ones! It looks good, is easy to use and the chickens seem very happy. The feeders are much better than the ones I used to use - the rain doesn't get in to the food and they hold lots of food so I can leave them overnight if necessary. I had a problem with my Grub which Omlet changed for me so I am impressed with both the product and the service. Would recommend!

good product
Nick,
Hi Overall a good product just one snag. Having read on other forums that the ladder is a bit short, this is what i have found also. Only having owned it a month i have had a chicken damage its leg and now stays outside. I have had to place a box at the bottom of the ladder to help her get onto the ladder. Maybe a modification to the ladder may be the answer. Other than that, i am very happy with it.

Love the cube.
Ginnie,
After much research we decided to go for the Eglu Cube, in the past we have always had wooden houses and runs and they are so heavy, they rot and are a nightmare to clean. We needed a house on wheels and a run as the girls cant come out because of the foxes and the dogs. The dogs are all gundogs so as far as they are concerned all birds must be retrieved! So the cube is a safe environment for them to be in and peck the dogs noses. We got the metre extension which has definitely been worth it. The cube is so easy to move and the girls get fresh grass everyday. Cleaning them out is now enjoyable and so easy to do. A few people have mentioned that their chickens have struggled with the ladder, mine had no problem and spend a lot of the day hopping on and off it, no problems going to bed and they pile out in the morning quite happily. I don't have any negatives about the cube, even though it was quite expensive, the fact it is so easy to clean and move makes up for the cost. A great design and wish we had discovered them sooner. I have very happy, clean girls producing an egg each a day and making our breakfasts so yummy!

The Best Chicken House!
Jan,
I know this is expensive but it is so worth every penny. Previously we had the Eglu GO which is great, but since we wanted more hens (we now have 4) we went for the Elgu CUBE with the extension. Bit tricky to put together - didn't help that it was pouring with rain at the time and windy! We had to leave it and continue the next day as the roof didn't fit correctly. One of the pre-drilled bracket holes had been put in the wrong place it was too high by about quarter of an inch and meant the roof couldn't slide. However, my husband added a washer to make the sliding bracket fit better and it's now fine. All in all I would recommend the Cube to anyone - it really is so very easy to clean and the hens love it! Great that you can add the extension at a later date - as I do think that without it the Cube run looks really small.

Great Chicken House
Shaheda,
We have had the Eglu for a couple of months. It is perfect for our girls. Its strong and robust. We looked at lots of other chicken housing but always came back to the Eglu. We feel happy in the knowledge that it is fox proof, in fact the local fox had one look and sniff at the Eglu and and knew it had no chance to get in! Our friends call it a chicken pent house as its looks so good. The customer service is fantastic. We got a bit stuck putting it together but Eglu sent over an Eglu person to help finish constructing it. A really helpful team. Many thanks.
