Great quality and fox proof.
Struggled to put this together at first as the instructions were in another box! But once up it was perfect. Chickens love it and are happy!
Review for: Eglu Go Up - 3ft Run Extension
Excellent product but should be included with hutch and run
These pegs are great; easy to use and do the job they should. However, it is wrong of Omlet not to include these with any purchase that has the anti-tunnel skirt (such as the Go Hutch with TWO metre run we bought) - the pegs are ESSENTIAL to securing the skirt to keep the run predator-proof. Omlet are ripping off customers by making them buy these separately..... A tip for customers is to periodically check each peg as hey can sometimes need another 'turn' just to screw them down fully. Overall a great product.

Good addition though pricey
We currently have two hens in our Go Up although will shortly have four. They are normally free ranging, but shut in when we are away and didn't feel the standard gave them enough space while we on holiday for two weeks. The extension does the job nicely and will be fine for the two extra hens too. Easy to add to the run but a significant cost to add to the kit. A little bit wobbly, but you can still move the run around on its wheels without any problems.

Genius design
Bought to secure the apron around my cube run as the ground is a bit uneven and didn't want to leave any gaps for Mr Fox to find on his daily visits. Screw in design works brilliantly even in dry hard ground. I have snapped one but that was user error due to me trying to screw into a tree root!

Eglu Co Up plus 1m run extension
Absolutely delighted with the Go Up house. The 4 ex-barn hens had no problem with the steps from day 1 and happy with their accommodation. The house is easy to clean and the food and water containers stay clean enough as they are attached to the frame off the ground. The 1m run extension was well worth getting as it gives the girls plenty of room if they have to stay inside during the day if I'm out. It's also easy to throw a little corn into the run to persuade the hens to go back in and it's then easy to close and secure the door quickly. The frame sagged in the middle at the sides when we attached the 1m extension and we've had to insert bamboo canes to keep them rigid - so the design could be improved. It would also be useful if the wire frame could be continued across the Go Up house so that the hens can't get out when the trays are removed for cleaning. We're now looking at Omlet fencing so that the girls can have a larger area to romp in!

A bit expensive but works well
Initially sent without the clips, but a set of clips was sent out promptly when reported.

Useful but needs more stability
A good and useful extension to give important extra space for 4 hens. Addition of a horizontal bar (maybe a perch) at the junction of the main run with the extension would greatly improve stability - otherwise the sides sag in a bit!

Expensive but you need it
I bought this immediately after constructing the Eglu Go with the standard run. With the standard run the set-up looked too small, the run extension made a massive difference - looks like it doubles the amount of space because it's wide. I'd add more if I could but I've run out of space!

expensive but excellent product
Easy to use. Added it to my go up to give my chucks a bit of extra space. The little clips are fairly easy to use and it all seems pest proof. Maybe on the pricey side but I still paid it didn't i?!
