To small
I have 6 chickens and the cage is way to small and the coop is so small that now that the chickens are full grown they don’t want to go in there anymore, big waste of money, also chickens like to sleep on perches and to small to install inside coop

Hi Isaac,
Thank you for your feedback.
The Eglu Cube has been designed to accommodate up to ten small chickens, eight medium-sized chickens or six large chickens.
There can be a range of reasons why your chickens are refusing to enter their coop. We would like to redirect you to a blog article on this subject, accessible by clicking here.
Although they don’t look like traditional wooden perches, the Eglu Cube has specially designed roosting bars with a structured surface and rounded corners where the chickens will sleep comfortably at night.
Don't hesitate to contact us by phone or by email for any further information.
Yours,
Omlet Customer Services team
Over rated
I received my Eglu Go 2 weeks ago and it was downhill since. Spent 2 days trying to get it constructed until I realized it wasn't me. They sent 2 "left" pieces for the front of the run and another piece that was bent. I received the correct pieces about a week later. I didn't get the wheel kit but it's not too difficult to move a few feet to give the girls a new area to forage. The feed and water containers are difficult to get to and I must get on my 66 year old knees to change them out. The cover for the feed dish is hard to snap on, then you can't snap it off, so I had to leave it off then it rained!! I feel the coop and run are too small, also the bedding winds up between the rungs in the coop leaving the nest bare. There is a sun shade included but guess what...sometimes it rains and that sun shade is not nearly big enough to keep them dry.. I covered the run with a clear shower curtain using clothes pins! And why is the sun shade in a dark color? Shouldn't it be a light color to reflect the sun? especially in NC...just saying. I'm getting a different coop next week and this is going back. It's over rated and over priced. The best
features are being predator proof and plastic.

Hi Vicki,
Thank you for taking the time to review your Omlet product.
We are sorry to read that some parts that were sent to you initially were incorrect. Depending on when you contact us, and how long shipping takes, it can indeed sometimes take a few days until you receive the replacements required.
Nevertheless, we can always assist you with this sort of query.
We understand that the run of the Eglu Go might not be suitable for everyone. This is why we offer alternatives, such as the Eglu Go UP, which is the elevated version of the Eglu Go, as well as Walk-In runs, offering a larger and higher space.
All the dimensions of our coops are indicated on our website, allowing our customers to make an informed decision when navigating our website. The coop should be used mainly for your chickens to rest at night, and we recommend to let them roam outside of their coop during the day.
More bedding can be added inside the coop in order to make sure that there is always some in the nesting area.
As its name indicates, the sun shade provided is mainly designed to provide some shade for your chickens from the sun. If you are looking for different types of covers, including transparent ones, we would recommend you to have a look at our range of run covers, available on our website.
Nevertheless, your comments have been passed on to our Product Design team and they will be reviewed for further improvements.
We remain at your disposal for any further information.
Best Regards,
Omlet Customer Services team
Not worth it, poor design
Everyday the chickens scrap the bedding out of the nest box when trying to lay leaving it completely bare and gets filled with droppings. I have to fill the egg box everyday with bedding, which is not practical at all. Poor design!
Love the Eglu Cube that is superb!

Stairs need to be improved
Stairs are unsafe and not easy for larger breads to use. A ramp would be a lot more practical. I am in the process or constructing and new ramp. I also have removed the roosting rack because it is slippery and my chooks won't use it. I'm quite underwhelmed with my purchase.

Hi Haley,
Thank you for your review.
As chickens are animals of habit, it may take them a little adaptation time before getting used to the ladder and the roosting bars. One tip would be to carry the leader of the group onto the roosting bars first and then the others. You can repeat that action several times and sooner or later, they will get used to it. You can also add some bedding onto the roosting bars to make the process easier.
We hope that this will help and don't hesitate to contact us for any further information.
Yours,

Chicks won’t go into it - even if I leave the back off so it is light inside
Coop was easily constructed and is weatherproof. I leave the door open and they won’t go in, even with treats on the stairs and inside (they eat the treats on the stairs but not inside). The older 2 birds have taken a break from laying (which is good under the circumstances). The tunnel run means that if they do lay an egg in the run I will have to crawl through chicken poop to recover it. They had no problem with my old coop and covered nest boxes.

Hi Audrey,
Thank you for taking the time to write to us.
Chickens are animals of habit, and it can sometimes take them a while to adapt to their new coop.
Leaving them treats there is a good strategy. Don't hesitate to carry them in as well, starting in pecking order.
Don't hesitate to contact us by phone or by email for any further advice.

Run a waste of money
The coop itself is fabulous, but a big drawback is the run and wheels package. I think the pictures and description are misleading making the run look sturdy and easy to move. In reality, the run is clunky and very difficult to move. I was surprised to see such a sophisticated design held up by zip ties in the end. I'm a big supporter of omlet and truly can see the extra thought they put into their products. But for the premium price and months of waiting, I expected a better run. It costed ~$350 for a poorly functional run that I will have to throw out and find an alternative solution. I hate to write a one star review. It would be great if there were some leniency to the return policy so we could find a solution for our girls and not have to waste so much money.

Hi Wendy,
Thank you for your review. We are quite surprised to read that you find the run difficult to move. This can also depend of other factors such as the incline and the type of ground you're on, but it should be easy to move the structure using the wheels. On our website, we have some handles available to purchase as well, that can improve the ease of movement of the run if you have some difficulties on your ground.
In order to keep the structure together, a mixture of screws, zip ties and clips are used and have been carefully selected by our product design team. Your installation should be sturdy and durable as a consequence of these structural choices.
We stay at your disposal by email and by phone for any further information or any query. We would be more than happy to ensure with you that all the elements of your run are accordingly installed in order for you to enjoy the convenience and simplicity of use of your Omlet product.
Yours,
The Omlet Customer Service Team
This product is garbage
I bought this 4-5 weeks ago for 4 chickens and it is literal trash. First off when I was building it the instructions were misleading and when I say misleading I MEAN MISLEADING! I HAD TO DISASSEMBLE THE WHOLE COOP AND START OVER 2 TIMES! The second thing is that box C did not come on time, I mean really, REALLY! The third and final thing is that the chickens were in the run, so I go inside my house and watch TV and from the corner of my eye, I see a HAWK ATTACKING ONE OF THE CHICKENS! I go outside and scare the Hawk off and I see that the chicken is injured. I took the chicken to the emergency animal hospital and they, unfortunately, had to euthanize it. So it makes me mad that Omlet advertises their products as "Pretor free." I mean REALLY! This is why this product is literal trash and for the money I paid for this, it's not worth it, also the time is not worth it either. This deserves 1 star for the lack of EVERYTHING it says it's supposed to be. Would not recommend it and would not buy it again.

Hi Chicago,
Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We are very sorry and sad to read what happened to your chicken. This is unusual to hear that kind of misadventure as we are working hard in order to produce the safest enclosures as we can. Our runs, made of heavy duty steel weld mesh, and the anti-tunnel skirt, should bring extra protection against predators. Unfortunately, nature can be unpredictable and unexpected things can happen however I can assure you that your feedback is being taken very seriously and I would like to thank you for making us aware of what happened so that we can look at ways of preventing it happening again. I will let our directors know and we will therefore investigate for improvements.
In order for us to understand exactly how this could have happened, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us to investigate further about your specific case. We will try to get in contact with you as well so that we can understand how this happened precisely.
In regards to the instructions manuals, don't hesitate to have a look at our videos as well, showing how to install your product step-by-step. This can be helpful especially if you are more of a visual person.
We are sorry to read that you received some of your packages separately. We are dispatching your products at once, however it can indeed happen that couriers separate the parcels if their van is full.
We sincerely apologise again and we are looking forward to hearing back from you soon.
Yours,
The Omlet Customer Service Team
Good coop- shoddy run
The run is flimsy, and especially difficult to move with the extension. The worst part, however, is that the run makes it IMPOSSIBLE to properly care for and feed your chickens. You cannot access the run to clean it or to effectively refill the food and water. I cannot express how disappointed I am for the money that was invested. The Eglu Up and run would surely be a much better option, but the price tag was nearly double the investment for the cube. Regretting my purchase.

Hi Marie,
Thank you very much for taking the time to write us a review.
We are sorry to read about the difficulties that you encountered. Your feedback has been passed onto our product design team who will look for future improvements.
If you wish, you always have the option to add the frame later if a higher coop would be more suitable for your needs.
For some of our customers, this coop can be a great option as part of their setup, or if they don't need to move it too much. In contrast, if you need to move it often, we also have handles and wheels that can be purchased separately.
In order to offer the most optimal price tags on our products, we offer that flexibility to add optional elements, to meet everyone's needs, depending of their type of terrain and setup.
However, if you wish to find another solution, please don't hesitate to contact us by email or by phone, we will be more than happy to discuss any question that you may have further with you.
Best Regards,
Clemence

Very good
I have found the cube to work very well. The assembly instructions were easy to understand and I managed to put it together myself. My two chickens seem to like it very much and have had no trouble using the ladder. It has also been easy to clean.
Only down side has been my chickens seem to like using one end of their nest box as a toilet and not sure how to train them not to do this and instead to use the roosting area where the droppings trays are located!

excellent
A very well designed product, good assembly instructions and easy to put up. Chickens appear to have settled in, we only have 3 chickens and on a slight downside would not want to put anymore in.
