Wooden coops are a paradise for parasites
Built to decay, not to last
A drafty and damp disaster zone

Wooden coops soak up droppings and ammonia, and harbour red mites and bacteria. They rot, warp, and leak in bad weather.
That’s why thousands of chicken keepers have switched to the Eglu: smooth plastic panels wipe clean in minutes, droppings don’t stick, and mites have nowhere to hide. Years later, it still looks as good as new.

The Easy Clean Advantage
We ask. We invent.
We’re Omlet and since 2004 we’ve been rethinking every aspect of keeping and caring for pets. Inspired by the magic when humans and animals connect, we watch, learn and ask so we can invent. Our products will make you wonder: why hasn't it always been done this way?
