Verified Reviews for Chicken Toys & Accessories

I admit that when I ordered the 2m perch, I wondered whether I was spending good money on a glorified broom handle...but actually this is a very clever design and I don't regret buying it at all. I have it diagonally in a Mk1 2m x 3m walk-in run. I already have a homemade standalone perch and this Omlet perch is a great addition, that no doubt will be well used by my hens.

Just received the perch and fitted it to my Eglu Cube. The chickens took a day to work it out but now seem to really like it. I found it pretty easy to assemble and it seems strong. Thanks.

We just love the new chicken perch from Omlet, it makes such a difference to the hens, especially when they need to stay secure in their run for a while. A great value product that facilitates the natural chicken instinct to perch up high and get a good safe view of all around them. A well designed addition to the fantastic Eglu range of products.

Two often try and get on at same time.

As far as our Silky Bantams go this was not the toy for them; we tried different heights from 100mm to 600mm all to no avail. We have perches that are graduated from ground level up to 800mm and they use these a lot of the time.

Installed two swings, but so far, none of the chooks had a go, even they usually jump on everything a bit elevated. Wondering, how to entice them to get up, maybe have to try some food. Otherwise a great idea. Also using a food ball and they love rolling it around to get the food coming out. Also use to put a butchers hook through the stalk of a cabbage head and then hang it up on some bungee straps about 20 cm from the ground. The chooks and ducks have a ball catching the swinging head and get a bite out of it. All gone within an hour or two.

Within a day the Velcro strap was tatty from pecking. It needs to be sturdier as I think there is an issue with this. The edges of the Velcro straps fray with pecking. The design of the shape is good and works very well, easy to put on. I wouldn't buy again unless the straps were addressed, but almost right!

I do not know who was most eggs-cited when I brought this item....me or my 3 girls. Can not fault this item in any way. Love it

The Jokes on my for buying "The Chicken Swing". Doesn't matter what I do, place the chicks on it, place the older hens on it, not one of the 8 want anything to do with it. It's still hanging , waiting. Maybe it's my chooks, but if you have to train them to use it I don't see the point!

Comfortable fit, excellent product! Beryl loves it :-)
