Eglu Cube - Chicken Coop for 6 Large Hens

We can get your order to you within two days from our Utah or Tennessee distribution facility. We use UPS and FedEx to ship orders and you will receive an email with tracking links once the order has been dispatched.

Your Eglu Cube comes in three boxes, labelled A to C, to be built in alphabetical order. The run and wheels come in additional boxes. Our ‘How to build’ videos will guide you through. It’s a big coop and may take some time, so invite your friends and order pizza in. The result is well worth it!

The Eglu Cube has twin wall insulation that works in a similar way to a flask. The coop retains the heat produced by your chickens to keep them warm in winter, and stops the cold air from penetrating the walls.

Similarly, the insulation will keep the coop cool in the heat. In combination with excellent draft-free ventilation that circulates fresh air throughout the Eglu Cube.

An Extreme Weather Cover is a great addition to add extra protection to your setup for very cold weather. This purpose designed chicken coop cover is filled with a heat trapping recycled material.

For over 15 years, our chicken coops have safeguarded America’s backyard flocks with unmatched protection against predators like hawks, raccoons, coyotes and bobcats.

During this time the Eglu Cube has been updated and improved to be even more resistant to persistent predators like raccoons. The lower half of the run has a smaller mesh pitch, perfectly gauged to prevent raccoon hands from reaching in. All Eglu Cubes now also come with two-step push and twist door locks on the back door and egg port to stop nifty fingers opening the coop.

There is no need to add a hardware cloth to your Eglu Cube.

While the Eglu Cube doesn’t have traditional wooden perches, it has specially designed roosting bars with a structured surface and rounded corners where the chickens will sleep comfortably at night.

Roosting bars allow the chickens to grip onto something while they sleep, which makes them feel safe and comfortable. As they climb up into the Cube to roost, they also get the reinforced feeling of being off the ground. Although they don’t look like traditional wooden perches, roosting bars are great for larger breeds who find it tricky to jump up to a raised perch, or recently rescued hens who don’t have the strength to flap, and the shape of the bars makes sure most of the droppings fall straight onto the removable tray underneath.

The Eglu Cube house is suitable for chicks over the age of 12 weeks. We recommend you remove the roosting bars from inside the coop until the chicks are big enough to perch and walk across the bars safely. The Eglu run is not suitable for chicks under the age of 12 weeks without supervision due to risk of escape and predators. Chicks may struggle with the ladder to begin with while they are small, so you may wish to lift them in and out of the coop yourself, or convert the ladder to a ramp. You should use plenty of bedding in the coop to keep the chicks warm, and change the bedding every few days.

If for any reason you’re unhappy with your Eglu Cube, you can return it to us for a full refund within 180 days if it’s dismantled and packed up in boxes for a courier to collect.

Our worry-free warranty covers free repairs and replacement parts for up to 10 years of your Eglu’s long life, should you experience any defects in the materials or workmanship.

The metal chicken runs are designed to be used outdoors for years to come. However, we recommend that you check the run regularly for signs of corrosion, especially if you live somewhere with extreme weather conditions or close to the sea. Corrosion will occur if the coating has been scratched or scraped for example. If you do see some, remove any loose rust and touch up with a weather resistant paint. If you have covers on your run and experience heavy snowfall it's advised you clear the snow off the roof to avoid the panels being damaged from the weight.
