Verified Reviews for Eglu Go - Chicken Coop for 3 Large Hens

As we live in a fairly exposed part of the Isle of Man (top of a hill with practically a 360 degree sea view) my biggest concern was how the Eglu would stand up to the extremely high winds we get from time to time. I need not have worried! A week or so we had a storm with winds gusting up to 60 mph - so strong that the garden store containing all the feed etc blew right across the garden. But through it all the Eglu did not budge an inch! It is also of sturdy construction. It was not long before we were visited by Mr R.A.T. who attempted to tunnel under the Eglu at the back. He had obviously tried to nibble his way in but could make no headway at all. So all in all I am totally delighted with my Eglu and secure in the knowledge that, whatever the weather up here, my girls are safe and sound!

I really like the Eglu Go but the nest is too shallow so nesting stuff is lost. Perhaps you could sell/give a ring or something to deepen the nest

I have recently brought an eglu go, i have been keeping chickens for about 4 years now and have had different styles of wooden houses and even a pvc! I wished i had done my home work years ago and brought an eglu go , it is so much easier to clean, i love the back door, it gives so much access and a doddle to clean. My girls dont seem to be a fan of the feeder, although this is not a big deal as they have an emperor feeder in their 4metre by 3 metre enclosure. If i add up the cost of the money i have spent on previous houses i could have 4 eglus in my garden! That would be one or each girl! Never mind i got there in the end ........ I love my eglu.

From the start it was ether a Go or Classic. The Classic is a lot more expensive but the side hatch for retrieving the eggs would be very useful but the door is at the end. I bought a Go plus extra door panel. It would be useful if a discount had been applied for the side panel that I no longer needed. I am going to have the whole coop + run raised on a 'log roll' base filled with Playground wood chips. Then it will be even easier to clean the Go. I found it difficult to mount the drink and food from my chair so I have the food mounted on a Feeder/drink stand. The drink is an auto drink suspended from the top of the run. After five weeks I am now having 10-12 eggs a week and am very pleased.

So pleased with my Eglu Go. I have kept chickens for years and have had all types of houses and runs, some home made, some purchased. Now I only keep a couple of girls in the garden and this product is superb. Easy to put together, pleased with the material, the design and how easy to clean it is. Also it is easy to move around the garden. I have added the run extension, which was fine, but now also have the netting to give the girls a bit more range. Altogether a brilliant set up. Two very happy hens and one happy owner.

It took me a while to build the run but now it's up and running it is easy to clean and move around the garden. My Wyandotte (Thelma) and Buff Orpington ( Louise) are extremely happy. Just waiting for egg production now . Highly recommend.

Clever construction, good solid hen house and easily fitted run. Ideal for my broody hen to sit her eggs and (now) 5 week old bantam chickens to run around.

This was the best decision I made to buy this luxurious home for my 3 chickens. They lived in a wooden coop and were always hen pecking each other, they just did not get on.... now they live happily with each other, with room to roam freely. They all snuggle up in the bedroom with no problems. From my point of view, happy chickens happy eggs!!! This is the most easiest coop to keep clean takes me less than 10 minutes to clean it and having looking spic and span... Very happy thank you Omlet.

Eglu Go and run in green with a Gingernut Ranger (now called Peck-it-Up) and Miss Pepperpot (now called Lay Hen). Really pleased with all - started off with leaving hens in run on grass and moving every four days but they eat all grass in less time than this so we now have very patchy lawn. They now on bark chip on patio and go free ranging for two or three hours a day - works much better. They layed from Day 1 (egg in delivery box) and we get 12 eggs week from the two chickens. Very easy to clean and use, delivered by helpful man who set it all up and clipped wings. Our Miss Pepperpot is larger and lays smaller eggs and is also queen of the pecking order and greedy. The Gingernut Ranger is smaller but lays larger eggs and is a bit more gentle - if I was to have more would add two Gingernut Rangers. Cant recommend this house and company highly enough - everything we expected and more.

The school chickens are very happy and started laying eggs only 10 days after they where put intheir new home. The kind lady who donated our chicks told us they were only 6 months old and they would probably not lay until they settled approx. 4weeks, The children love getting involved and due to the perfect design it is easy to allow them to do so. The assembly instructions were very precise making the job uncomplicated. Very easy and hygemic to clean out. The bedding etc! goes straight in the compost bin. Children, chickens and myself are very happy. Thank you
