Verified Reviews for Outdoor Chicken Run Covers
Brilliant
I’ve kept chickens before and used an old style wooden coop and run
This time I decided to “go Omlet” and bought the Eglu cube and a large run. I’m so impressed with the cube compared to the old style. It’s extremely well designed and easy to clean. The chickens took to it straight away and they also loved the feeder and drinker. The run itself is huge and easy to put together. All the covers are strong and look well made so will hopefully last a while. I can’t comment on the chicken swing yet as my girls haven’t tried it out but I would definitely recommend all things Omlet.
Review for: Combi Cover for Walk in Run - 2m - Roof
very safe product
Cats love being outside and we know they are secure. Not too strenuous to put together but had to add extra cover of smaller mesh on the top part to stop cats getting paws caught. Maybe use same size mesh, the smaller one, mesh for whole construction. Otherwise very pleased with sturdiness and space

Heavy duty cover
I am very pleased with the quality of the heavy duty cover. It fits well on the roof of the 3m walk in run and keeps the run and my girls dry on wet days. Easy to adjust with the bungee cords. Have bought two heavy duty covers and one clear cover. Well recommended.

Fine for those who need to get sun in
This product is OK but I have found that under the elastic tension of hooks the plastic is too soft and the metal eyes which the elastic goes through are distorting the plastic. it is also much more light weight than the heavy duty cover which is excellent and will clearly last many times longer. If given the choice again I would have gone with 2 heavy duty covers

Clear Cover
Excellent product. We bought a couple so that we wouldn't have to run out and cover the cat-tree every time it threatens to rain.

Heavy duty cover easy to fit
It was simple to fit with a set of stepladders as we are on the short side! Keeps the ground underneath the 2 covers very dry and provides good shade. no leaks at overlap. Pleased with it.

Ok product
Ok cover, I thought it would cover the completely roof but I turn you would need 3 to cover the top. So slightly expensive also gutter doesn't really doesn't work well

Omlet response:
Thanks for your feedback. The gutter is designed to work with another cover. It stops the water going between the covers.
An absolute essential
If your coop in exposed like ours is, then these covers are an absolute necessity. I have ordered 4 in total; 2 x 3m clear and 2 x 3m green heavy duty. The 2 clear ones cover the run (4m x 3m x 2m) over the coop in one of the corners. We have stretched the green heavy duty ones around the outside (one top half of run and the other the bottom half) so that the coop is pretty much enclosed in the corner of the run and rarely ever gets wet when it rains. The only problem is the uneven roof due to it sloping, where a little bit does get in. But overall, we are really chuffed as all of the covers provide great shelter for dust baths, preening and overall chicken happiness!

Works well
Since adding this to the run we have had some heavy rain but not once have I seen the hens with wellies and umbrellas so it's working well!
