      Eglu chicken cube large

      Very easy to put together. Instructions in each carton which made it very easy. Plastic means it will be easy to clean.

      Fresh start

      Very easy to put together with a helping hand. Definitly looks like cleaning and mite control will be easier. Although a week later the chooks have still to venture inside. Working on this with treats up the steps.

      6 happy girls!

      We bought this to replace a very old and very tired wooden coop. We were really struggling to get a mite infestation under control, so eventually I bit the bullet and decided the old house was only good for the scrap heap. The new Eglu coop with the light and smart door is a huge upgrade for our girls. They’re so much more comfortable and happy and mites are basically a thing of the past. Cleaning is a breeze too. Wasn’t initially sure about buying a plastic coop over wood, but I’m glad I did and I’d wholeheartedly recommend this setup.

      Palace for my Chooks!

      I love my eglu cube. So easy to clean and the access to eggs is fantastic. My chickens love it. Great for my little urban garden! Highly recommend!

      Worth the money

      We researched coops and chicken houses for months before saving to get the omlete cube.
      It arrived very quickly , great customer service.
      We watched the you tube video to assemble it and it was very easy and straightforward. Very pleased with the final product and look forward to many years of happy chickens .

      Pricey, but seems worth it so far.

      While the cost was a little hard to swallow (especially as we needed two of them for our flock ) they are great coops - we view it as an investment into the comfort and safety of our hens. The build quality is excellent and the instructions were clear and easy to follow (although we were left with a few extra parts here and there). I don't doubt that these coops will last us for many years - we've struggled with mites in a wooden coop, and we're expecting that's now going to be a thing of the past.

      Our young pullets took to the coop easily and are very comfortable, while the old dears had a bit of trouble getting up the stairs initially. We have DIY'd a bit more of a ramp and added a step, and this has fixed the situation up.

      Overall we would absolutely recommend the Eglu.

      Great coop

      Great coop, bit fiddly to put together but once together, looked great. My new girls love it

      Eglu Cube

      Took a while to put together but we are nearly there and it looks great! It will be so much easier to keep clean than our old wooden chicken coop, and we won't have to bend over to collect the eggs or to clean out the poop tray.
      Some of the instructions were a bit confusing for us -it would have been an idea to read through them thoroughly first and to lay out all the pieces before we started , but we were keen to get assembling, so that was our fault! Everything fits together easily and we are still reasonably sane and talking to each other!

      Happy Bantams

      From start to finish, the process of ordering, receiving and erecting this wonderful chicken coop and run was effortless. More importantly, we have four very happy bantams. We wouldn't hesitate to order from Appletons again. Thank you so much!!

      APP-NestLiner for eglu cube

      Invest in Nest Liner 🥚

      Hens sometimes kick wood shavings out the nest bowl especially when fluffing around to lay. With the chicken astroturf eggs are laid directly on top of the nest liner. Eggs stay nice and clean ready for collecting. We have seen no broken eggs since using the nest liners. Thumbs up all round from both the hens and us! 👍
