Verified Reviews for Eglu Chicken Runs

These are amazing, The ground is very uneven, but these have held it down very securely.

We bought the extension after a fox caught one of our two hens in the daylight ( we let them roam in the garden during the day and only closed the Eglu each evening). The extra space means they are very happy to be enclosed all the time, and we have total peace of mind that they are secure. Even with the run extension one of us can easily move the Eglu on our own because it is light and easily moved to a new grassy area, and the skirting gives extra security to prevent anything burrowing under the wire. It was reasonably easy to add to our existing Eglu Go and we are delighted with it.

My land is quite uneven and these pegs were easy to screw in and made the run very secure so happy my girls are safe.

A much improved system to secure the run. really easy to use and much quicker to move.

Very quick and easy to use and seem quite strong

Put them use straight away. Easy to screw in and out when you want to move the run. Give added security to the chickens and peace of mind to me.

Brilliant! they keep the run very secure - would not be without them and easy to put into the ground and take out.

My ground is slightly uneven so I felt a bit more secure having these in place. Very easy to screw in, even in hard clay soil.

I added these pegs to my order as a bit of an afterthought, however, as the ground I have put my classic eglu and 3m run on is everso slightly uneven they have made it entirely stable and fox proof. The security these have provided for my chickens has been well worth the cost of these easy to use pegs. I would reccomend any one getting a run to use these, even if you only used a couple as you were going to move it around your garden it would add to the security of your chooks!

Putting it together was a bit of a nightmare - took two hours and needed help from two friends to put clips together - but that is probably why it is secure. The chickens took to it immediately and Julia laid her first egg within an hour! Hilary and Michelle produced the following morning and we have settled in to three a day. We kept them in the run for two weeks and finally risked letting them free range last Sunday. Each returned to the Pod to lay and took themselves to bed about 8:45pm then lights out at 9. We don't know what variety they are (bought from a local Portuguese chicken lady) but believe them to be about 5 months old so expect them to get a bit bigger - eggs are white, smallish with light yellow yolks but taste wonderful. Their role is to keep the pests under control - we have a tremendous snail problem - not good when you are trying to grow your own veg so fingers crossed for next year's harvest.
