Verified Reviews for Omlet Walk In Chicken Run Extensions

We have an Eglu coop with older hens. We wanted to get new chicks, so we purchased a new Eglu coop and put the Chicken Run in the middle. We alternate access to the run between the old ladies and young girls.

So glad we bought this yard and the extensions. Safe and secure for letting our kitties play. We can't wait to get another 9' x 24'.

We live on a typical suburban lot, so free range wasn't an option. We attached this run to our Eglu Go Up - and now the chickens have plenty space (and the kids have a safe way to hang out with the chickens). Still waiting on some covers to weather proof it for the winter. I like that you can sort of customize it and put the door and the connection panels wherever is convenient. It was a long day of clipping to put it all together, but it's not that hard.

I ordered in February and it came in two shipments. One arrive in May and one arrived in August. Not good quality. Horrible customer service. It was not worth the money.

The pole clips are very hard to fasten at least 4/5 of the time. I have to fiddle and fiddle with them. August in Florida is not the best time to be doing this (ordered in April). I just finished my 4th day of working on it for 4 hours straight. I am far from finished. My husband heard of Omlet on NPR at least 15 years ago and I have wanted one ever since. Boy was I wrong. Kit is well put together. Some extra plugs for the poles would be nice. Please let me be finished with this run Hell. I think I have been working on it my whole life.

So glad we went with a walk in run. It makes visiting and feeding the girls so easy. And saves my back from lots of bending! I also like the amount of space it gives my chickens for walking, scratching, and eating, We added boards rebar hooks around the perimeter as we will need to hold down the covered structure once we have a winter Nor’Easter come through.

Excellent customer service from Sue, who politely answered my queries, helped me decide what I needed, and got my delivery organised for the following day. The walk in run (2m x 2m x 6m) I bought is really good quality and came with easy to follow instructions and is easy to construct. I did so on my own, all I needed was steps (I'm short) and a screwdriver. The boxes (14 of them!) are well labelled and everything is very well packaged, so arrived in good condition.

Had the Go with 2m run, have just upgraded to a walk-in run. Oh my what an improvement for the chickens and us. They love the extra space and height. I love being able to get inside with them, to pet them and it makes cleaning a breeze and refreshing food and wood chips is so easy now.

Purchased 2 months ago, so far I love it and so do the chicks! Easy to put together and strong, I think this will last for many years to come. Due to space I have put our cube inside the run, the chicks love snuggling underneath during the day. The door is wide enough to carry out the cube though the door so cleaning is still super easy. The lock on the door is secure yet simple enough my mum can open/close it without difficulty. I also like that if we move house it can be reconfigured to go anywhere. Chicks have plenty of space to roam and once we have finished landscaping around the side the green colour will blend in perfectly. I have also added the canvas roof for additional protection during winter.

I've been researching walk in runs for some time after making the decision to give my chickens more space in chicken lockdown and due to ease of cleaning, durability and appearance, I went for an Omlet run. My run is actually a 3 x 2 run as I bought an extension at the same time as the 2x2 that was on sale, at the time. My chickens were originally in a 4 metre classic run, which was ideal in the spring, summer and autumn when they were able to free range, almost all day every day, but now they need to be under cover, practical access for daily cleaning is needed more frequently. I am keeping my Classic run for when I add new additions to my little flock. I love how easy it is access the run with the double stable door, having the choice of just opening the top door to change their food or water for example. My chickens have so much more space than before and when fully covered, the run stays dry and fairly draught free through the winter weather. As well as the covers on the outside, I used some photographic shower curtains hung around the perimeter edges to give a more naturalistic effect and an illusion of a little more space inside whilst bird flu keeps them in their coop. I shall also be adding some more features to their coop in time for more interest, a perch, some logs etc, to keep them occupied. Fabulous product, fairly easy to instruct using the Omlet YouTube videos and always the opportunity to expand it further in time!
