Get out your torches and pitchforks, friends! It's time to talk about everyone's "favorite" prefab: The Omlet Eglu.
Every spring, I'll see several newcomers on BYC asking about Eglus. "Should I get one? How many chickens does it hold? Does it get hot in the summer?" And these are great...
I have a question, has anyone put a heat plate (We have the yellow mama hen one) into an eglu house?
I'm hoping to move my chicks from this hatch outside sooner this time round, and set up an outdoor brooder for them. My idea is to put the eglu on our patio with slabs under and slabs on the...
Hello! I'm looking for a new home for my Eglu coop with 6x6 run. It's 6 years old and in great working shape, free for anyone who can transport it to a new home--and who is willing to take my four lovely hens. Of the hens, two are 8 months old, great layers, and the other two are 3 years, hearty...
Question on assembly, i got the go up coop assembled, ready to attach to frame, brackets don't line up, are there part numbers on the panels? How do you know which is right and which is left?
We have a 4 year old large Eglu Cube with a 9 ft run, tractor wheels, and cover up for sale. It currently has a manual door, but we have the automatic one still in the box, ready for install.
Unfortunately we've had a steady run of predators coming into our yard over the years. Currently we...
Somebody is selling an Eglu Cube for $650 in Ladera Ranch, CA.
I'm on the other side of the country and don't know this seller. I just watch for Cube's to go on sale. (I wouldn't mind having one as an isolation coop if it were bargain priced.)
I'm a bit stuck on how to move 6 Ancona chicks from their inside home to the outdoor Omlet Eglu coop.
I currently have a one year old Brahma hen who has unfortunately due to her friend dying, been on her own for about 6 months. I've hatched some Ancona chicks who are 5 weeks old now. I'm a bit...

I got two Eglus for 8 bantam-sized birds. I put them up on new bricks because I thought that the price of a frame was silly. However I found that the bricks got in the way too much so I grudgingly paid the price of the frame, which proved to be much more sturdy and stable than piles of bricks...
...started, so I'm posting in case it helps somebody else. I didn't see any posts about my particular circumstances -- one baby, two adults, in an Eglu.
I integrated a 14-week-old Rhode Island Red pullet into a flock of two grown Rhode Island Red hens in a Eglu Cube tractor with a 12' run...
Hi everyone,
This past spring I had some issues with predator attacks on my old chicken coop. My parents were kind enough to gift me the Omlet Eglu and a large Omlet walk-in run. Getting it set up was quite the endeavor but it's been worth it for the predator-resistance. Nothing has been able...
One of my four hens is eating her eggs. No fun. I am trying to diy a roll away nest box inside my Eglu Cube. Desperate and not very mechanical. Anyone bought or made a rollaway for their Eye Cube?
First attempt (pictures with white tray), I used a solid seed starting tray. Thought it might be...
So I am getting 5 chicks, 3 giant and 2 large breeds, and we have a eglu cube along with a 9x6 run.
I may be overthinking it but I just don’t like the “roosting floor”. Is there actually an issue with it or is it perfectly fine? If it is an issue, what should I do about it?
Thanks again...
Hi all, we are newbies at this - 3 months now. We live in the south and it's been in the 90s for weeks now and only in the low 80s at night. This coop is supposed to stay cool at night but when the door opens at dawn our girls are panting. The ambient air is much cooler than in the coop. We...
My eglu pro extra large chicken coop will be arriving at the end of Feb!!! I can't wait! My chicks won't be going out soon, as they are just about 2 weeks old, but their coop will be prepared and ready for them when we start to introduce them outside at 5-6 weeks, and then hopefully fully...
...around 3 pounds or so and is of unknown breed. I believe she is around 6 or 7 months old. Along with my two hens I am giving away a Omlet brand Eglu coop that has enough capacity to fit around 5 or 6 medium sized hens. The coop is used and around 4 years of age. I am looking for someone that...
need the best feed storage that is waterproof and it is pest resistant and can hold quite a bit of feed.
would love your guys ideas and what works for you.
I’ve had chickens for around 4 months now and they have always had the mk2 cube, it’s easy to clean but I am having to clean it everyday because the girls rarely get their poop to drop through the roosting bars into the tray! They have an auto door so are out early and I try to get in there...
