I used this a couple of times on one of my ex battery hens who was being terrorised and badly pecked and the pecking stopped immediately and I now have a happy hen.

Very useful item
Bought the run to house my cats whilst moving into a new house. Excellent product. Very straightforward to put together, do allow plenty of time and much quicker and easier with two people.
Once In situ good, does not dominate the garden. Easy to get in and out, plenty of room to put a chair in and sit with your pets.

Amazing hutch
This hutch is an amazing hutch, with the great handing opening door at the front making it easy to add treats, toys or even a rabbit into the cage.The easy access door at the back makes it easy to add food, treats etc and makes it very easy to clean out (especially with the pull out bedding tray) Mt rabbits stormy and otty love this omlet go so much. One slight problem though- this is that the cover has broken and it is so annoying as its coming into the winter know and my rabbits need it. Its a shame rally as it was brand new and only lasted a few months. my chicken omlet go cover has lasted years but not the rabbits. A part form that its fantastic.

Good to try both
I wanted to try both styles. After the initial shock of having new things in their yard, the chooks took to both styles equally and enjoy them. However, I find food gets stuck at the bottom of the Elvis.

Heavy Duty Cover for Walk In Run
Purchased this for my son and daughter-in-law. They are very pleased with it. It offers wonderful protection against rain, wind and sunshine. Very easy to reposition if needed.

Ok
The screw pegs are are fine for the flat fox proof wire at base of wire housing and screwing them into grass makes them secure as not easily lifted out.

4 stars as squire difficult to erect
Not as easy as basic English to erect luckily my son in law put in up for me. Would be a good idea for Omlet to have that

Review for: Eglu Go UP Chicken Coop with 2m Run and Wheels Package - Leaf Green
Delighted with purchase
Decided to invest in a new coop and went for this plastic one. My old wooden one had started to rot, and was a pain to keep clean and free of red mite. This plastic one is really strong and well made, and so easy to keep clean. The stand makes it easy to access, and the chickens have settled in well and actually lay where they should, instead of all over the garden. very pleased with the product.

Hook broke after a week's use!
I've been using the extreme temperature blanket for a week now & have been very pleased with it. It's very thick and completely water proof. It's easy to unhook and access the nest box on a daily basis. However, upon re-hooking it today after collecting eggs, it went ping! One of the hooks has come off the end of the bungee cord, which is disappointing after just a week's use.

Red Mite Powder
Bought this powder as after many years of keeping poultry, red mites were becoming an all to regular presence in the coops etc. (Once they are in the coop, on the birds in the grass etc it is almost impossible to get rid of them!!! They can blow about on the slightest breeze and even the process of clearing out sawdust/bedding from the coop means you are dropping eggs and mites everywhere).
As they breed so quickly, they build an immunity to pesticides quite fast so I used to find changing products/pesticide would work for a time but be ineffective eventually.
One thing that DID work for many years was good old creosote. Really thickly applied and left to fully dry but it was banned sometime ago and creosote alternatives just DON'T have the same effect.
Then I tried this powder from OMLET and I have to say that so far it has been working very well.
Clean out your coop extremely well and incinerate/burn all the stuff you have taken out asap to kill mites and eggs before they can contaminate the grass or blow off in the breeze. Also disinfect the bucket/wheelbarrow/dustpan and brush you used to clean and transfer waste from coop as mites and eggs will cling to these and then be spread about as you go about doing other things. If you can, soak the brush in boiling water!!!!!
Take out any removable items from coop such as perches. Mites love to collect in nooks and crannies and perches are a favourite. Hidden but close to the birds at night when they crawl out and feed on their blood.
If possible give them a soak with boiling water.
After coop is cleaned out give it a liberal dusting of the OMLET powder focusing on corners and joints or anywhere where there may be a gap (no matter how small mites will get in).
Replace bedding for fresh. Always use something dust free as chicken lungs are susceptible to respiratory infections and are nothing like mammalian lungs.
Scatter some of the powder in the bedding and focus on nest boxes.
Powder the ends of the perches.
That should be your coop complete.
Dust the birds with the powder. Focus on the bottom around the vent (DO NOT PUFF ANY INTO THE VENT), and under the wings into the chickens armpits.
Also think of adding to the chickens crumb/mash/pellets as the label says it can help with internal parasites.
I feel that this OMLET powder has given me back control of my coops and chickens and I am extremely satisfied with it.
Always remember to still check your coops and birds regularly for mites (red or other). Keeping on top of any infestation is the key to good husbandry and happy birds.
