Never mind

The impression I get is the coops were marketed at people who might keep two or three hens in their back garden. My sister has an older model and and keeps four hens. The hens are roaming the garden during the day so the coop is only used for sleeping and egg laying. There is a small run attatched, not particularly secure but it could be improved, where she shuts them in when nobody will be at home.
You can make a roost bar for the coop without much trouble.
One of the features is that the coop is double layered and this provides some insulation and thus keeps the coop warm and dry in the winter months.
For the conditions above it may be worth buying one but the limitations are fairly obvious.
Would I buy one? No. There are better recycled plastic coop options on the market considerably cheaper.

If you installed a roost the vents would basically be pointed at their faces. Not good at all in a cold climate.

I use a wire rabbit cage with a hw cloth wire floor and a dog crate for quarantining my chickens that are sick or not feeling well(both inside) The Omelet coop would be a great for a broody hen with chicks too!

I have the omlet pro which is their newest one. Up to 15 birds. I have 8. I just wish it would stay warmer inside and humidity is too high. I have mixed feelings about it at the moment. Very cold winters here, thought it would be better. I have the 12 ft run and let them out when I am home.

I looked up that coop and it doesn’t look like it has hardly any ventilation. Any way you could increase that? Maybe add a fan? I’m sure that would help with the humidity. How cold is it getting? Do you know the temperature in the coop at night? Chickens can tolerate very cold weathers, but the humidity is what makes it dangerous. I would increase ventilation to get humidity down even if I lowered the temp too. I didn’t find dimensions of that coop, but I saw a picture of somebody standing next to it and I really think there is no way you could fit 15 in there. 8 is probably fine, but I wouldn’t add any more (unless the coop is bigger than I think it is)

Anyone have experience with the omlet coop?

Yes I have the Omlet Cube designed for 6 hens, I know they have a bigger one now that can handle I believe 10.

Yes, they are pricier however it is lightweight and the run that I have off of it allows me to move it around my yard with ease.

I am in Virginia for weather reference and my chickens are happy.
