Verified Reviews for Eglu Pro^® - Extra Large Chicken Coop with Runs

It’s together, but not in use yet. This is my second coop. Was wondering if you have a heater to go inside I saw the space on the inside when assembling the coupe.

My review is simple, we love everything about this coop and the 9x6 run we attached to it. Was it a pain to put together? Yes. Was it worth it? Also, yes! I love how easy this is to clean and overall maintain.

I've had the pleasure of owning an Eglu Pro for 3 months. Assembly was super easy, thanks to the detailed instruction booklets & videos. I was able to do it alone, and I'm a short, post 60 y/o, woman. Being short helped when climbing in and out during assembly. The run was also easy to assemble, but don't expect all of your fingernails to survive the process if you do it by hand. A pair of smooth jaw, flat nose, pliers came in handy squeezing the clips. They're not hard to do and require minimal pressure, but the pliers gave my fingers a little relief. Customer service was top notch pre and post sale, and I was very, very, pleasantly, surprised. There were two parts damaged by the carrier and Omlet replaced them right away. However, please note that packaging was exceptional in detail, labeling, and protection. The Eglu Pro is a breeze to clean, which was my main reason for purchasing it. We've had stick built coops in the past and this one eliminates all of the problems associated with them. Things I would change: Stronger welds on the skirting - I've had a couple detach, and uniform support on the corners. I received 4 identical corners, so the vertical support is on top for 2 and bottom for the other 2. I would also like a hatch, incorporated on the side panel, to access the ladder for removal and cleaning. Fantastic ladder, btw! Lastly, if you're short, you'll have to spread your wings a bit wider to reach/grab the handles to move the tractor. It's doable, but slightly awkward. The tractor turns on a dime and even an old lady can do it.

Perfect is really the best way to describe the Eglu Pro. From its size - not so big that it can’t be maneuvered with its wheels and handles, but spacious enough for a larger flock - to its features. The triple-slot nesting box is amazing, as is the closing mechanism to keep hens out overnight. The “window” on the front is something I never knew I needed, but not only does it give hens a sense of what time of the day it is, it makes the coop feel so light and airy! The removable nesting area and roosting area trays slide seamlessly and are simple to clean. The ramp is just the right angle, and doesn’t need to be removed when the wheels are engaged to move the coop. The interior panels have labeled areas for things like the coop light (which fits like a glove), a web cam, and other accessories. This wasn’t my first Omlet build, and while I was intimidated by the size, I was able to put the Pro and the attached 9 foot run together by myself in a couple of afternoons! My Eglu Cube is amazing, but the Eglu Pro is a coop that I just can’t do without. It’s big. It’s beautiful. And it’s the best coop I’ve ever had!

My husband and I have been bitten by the chicken bug and, after many, many months of research, we saved and purchased the Omlet Eglu Pro chicken coop with the auto door. It took us about two days to put it together and we've both been truly impressed by the quality of its components, the overall precision, and the flawless design. It absolutely feels like this coop will outlast us and probably our successors too. If there were a Nobel Prize for chicken rearing supplies, Omlet would get it! Our 6 Ladies were delivered a week ago from a reputable UK poultry supplier, where they had never used elevated perches or ladders before. And yet within 3 days, all of them instinctively took to the coop, started climbing the ladder in the evening and coming down in the morning without any extra encouragement from us. This truly stands testament to how well thought this coop is, if it appeals even to a large, typically non-perching breed such as Brahma. I've not had the chance to do a deep clean just yet, however it's quite obvious that the coop is easy to clean and maintain, and our Ladies seem to sleep very well at night, despite the neighbours' dogs barking, local cats fighting, rain pouring down, and worrying gusts of wind. There's no rainwater infiltration, and the coop is well-ventilated without being draughty. It is genuinely impressive. So, in a nutshell, yes, this coop may cost more than our American-style fridge-freezer and our washing machine combined, but it is 100% worth it from every point of view. It's an investment that will make chicken rearing a modern-day delight rather than a hassle. Take it from someone of particularly high standards in everything. :)

I purchased the Omlet instead of building my own and I’m happy I did. It took about 3 days to build the pro which felt like a long time but I’m sure it saved me a lot of time compared to building my own. I’m very happy with the quality and features….I know it’s going to save me a lot of time and energy caring for my chickens.

I love my omlet pro. After a terrible incident with a racoon I felt heart broken and helpess. I started searching for coops and the omlet popped up. A little out of my price range as a single parent but my chickens safety is priceless. Saved up and finally got their new home. The shipping was super fast. I ordered on a Thursday and half arrived Saturday the other half Sunday. It did take me 8 hours to put together. But I also live in central Florida where the heat is unbearable. There's a video you can watch also for step by steps so charge your phone lol. No issues with set up at all. This thing is strong. It can hold my weight leaning and trying to tighten everything. I was amazed. I purchased the auto door and light. Thr only negative I have is it gets very very hot inside. If you live in Florida where it easily hits 100 by lunch you will need a fan. Unfortunately the pro is designed for a fan but they have not released one yet. So if you think you can put this in the sun and be okay your chickens will not go in it at night. I put a camera inside and they were panting and standing all night. I put my head in and immediately started sweating between the heat and humidity in the air. I did purchase a cheap desk fan and used an extension cord and put it inside the omlet and everyone was laying down and sleeping finally l, dreaming in the breeze. Just want to give that warning to anyone purchasing in the south. You're going to want a shaded area for sure. Other than that, this is the awesome. So easy to clean so durable and strong. I plan to buy another one next spring.

First impressions were that everything is very well made and good quality. The build process was easy to follow with great instructions and everything was clearly labelled for assembly. The coop is on legs with a small entry ladder to the inside space and an area beneath which the hens can also use. The Eglu Pro is definitely looks as though it is designed to last a lifetime; solid in structure and made from plastic so it doesn’t require painting or treatment to prevent rotting / weather damage. The features I am really impressed with are the pull out trays below the roosting area, which make it very quick and easy to clean out the hens. The large lift off door and removable panels where the hens roost also make it a really straightforward cleaning process, because everything lifts out. Underneath the coop is a wire section which the hens use all the time during the day to shelter if the weather is bad! It’s not a huge coop in terms of the amount of room it takes up in my garden but it has loads of interior space for the hens and it is working really well for me in conjunction with the walk in run.

So far I am loving it, so much more room for the girls and the three trays to catch and empty droppings is so much easier.

WOW!! I'm in love. I have the Omlet Eglu Cube, and I didn't NEED a new chicken coop, because after 5 years the Eglu is still in perfect condition. However I have been waiting for the day to add more chickens, so I knew I had to get the Pro as soon as I saw it. Omlet listens to its customers and the upgrades are amazing! The nesting boxes are so nice with a hinged door, a stronger frame around the entrance, and easy access underneath the chicken coop, and I'm excited about all the possibilities for extras. The coop itself has a window, a spot for their auto door (also a 5-star product) a camera, and a fan. I can't recommend this product enough. It is above and beyond what I expected! Worth every penny because it'll last you a lifetime.
