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

Amazing coop and run! I am a total newbie with chickens and wanted to give them and me, the best start. I was talked out of a traditional wooden coop, due to possible red mite infestation in the future and ongoing maintenance of wood. Omlet was the obvious choice, due to ease of cleaning. I wanted at least 4 chickens to start off, with a bit of extra room for them for comfort, so purchased the cube and 3m run, (adding another 1m extension to the order). Assembly took slightly longer than I expected, but I wanted to do it right first time. (The video made this easier than instruction manual alone). I also ordered the auto door & coop light at the same time to make fitting even easier. Everything fitted perfectly and the construction and strength of everything is brilliant. I believe that this is the best coop and run available, for ease of cleaning and anti predator protection. My 5 girls, (couldn’t resist another one), love their home and one has started to lay already. Her second egg was even a double yolker!! Since buying the cube, I have added a 32m run and a few extra Omlet accessories!!! Although expensive, the quality is excellent and will last for years. If you are just starting out, or a seasoned expert, this is an amazing investment for you and your girls !!

We are new chicken owners, having contemplated it for years, finding the Eglu coop cemented the decision for us. It answered my 3 concerns: predator proof, easy to clean, and (with the automatic door) easy care. I would highly recommend add the wheels so you can easily move the unit. We have 3 large sized hens, and could easily accommodate a 4th, which is about the max I think I'd have based on our run size (they only free range under supervision - see predator concerns above!). If they were free ranging the coop could easily fit more. All in all, I am thrilled with the ease of use of the Omlet coop and am looking forward to years of chicken keeping!

Fab bit of kit. A little large for my two girls but they are very happy in it. Enough room for the telly & library.

Having previously owned a second hand Omlet classic coop, I had an idea of what to expect with regards to design and build quality. I was looking for a coop that could house a few more hens, and provide the extra security by being off the ground. I love the way the nesting area is separate to the main part of the house, which you can shut off if needed. The removable droppings tray easily pulls out for cleaning, and the whole internal coop area can be accessed through the hatch to the rear. The run is strong and sturdy and provides my hens with the extra security I’m looking for against predators. I ordered the run handles, coop light and auto door opener as extras. I’ve been impressed with the build quality and built in enhanced security features, which is one of my main reasons for choosing Omlet houses over their competitors!

Great piece of kit - fabulous design, and well worth the money.

This is our first hen house and I've spent two years researching all the options and dithering, with an ever growing list of 'must haves'. Finally opted for the Cube because we wanted plastic (to try and avoid red mite), and something that is easy to clean/with an attached run and raised above the ground for shelter/rodent management! The quality of the coop is great- and the wheels are an added bonus (already moved it about a bit). Rescue hens seem to love it- climbing the ladder from day one- it's been a big hit all round and very pleased with purchase.

I’m a new chicken mama and I just love my chickens. I did lots of research on housing and built a beautiful wooden coop expecting to house 8 full size and 6 bantam silkies inside. As they grew the two groups did not get along and for fear of injuries the bantam silkies needed their own home. That’s when I found Omlet and was intrigued. I kept researching and looking at them and read so many great reviews. So I took the chance to order one for the silkies. I totally love it and so do they! It was so easy to assemble and is so easy to move around with the wheels and now my yard isn’t getting completely destroyed from the chickens. The design is great, however in my opinion it should have a small hang on water and food container inside the coop for them to access if needed. Otherwise I think the design is awesome! I love the pull out dropping tray making it a breeze to clean. I also think it could benefit having a small perch inside for smaller birds that like to roost at night higher up and off the bottom roost bars, as I have a few that do under the coop in the day time. I couldn’t be happier with this coop and have been obsessed with lots of other products they have as well and I am finding myself on their site often.

Once they figured out the stairs (didn't take long) they loved it. Closed the nesting boxes at night so they didn't sleep in them for about a week. Love being able to take out the roosting portion and hosing it off every few days (no idea yet what I'll do in the winter w no hose - any advice appreciated). All in all chickens and myself give it five stars.

I got this to replace two smaller coops and it works perfectly. Particularly like the raised egg collection door

Absolutely the Best Buy! Chickens are really happy ! Super easy and fast to clean. Assembly easy, my 13 year old son did nearly all of it by himself! Have ordered another extra run and an automated door too specially for the winter months. I would recommend this coop to anyone!
