Verified Reviews for Eglu Go Up - Chicken Coop for 3 Large Hens

I am pleased with the eglu but there are a few things that could be improved. The house itself is great, I like the fact it is easy to clean and wont rot or harbour mites. Less good is the ladder - my little bantams cant walk down it, so they fly/fall out and crash into the wire of the run. Maybe they will learn but they have been in it about a month now. The other thing is lack of shelter from wind and rain - we have had to add on some windbreaks, as it has been windy and the rain blows straight under the house. If I put the food hopper where i can reach it from the door, the rain gets in it and the food goes mouldy. If I tuck it under the house, I have to crawl into the run to refill it, as there is no hatch to access it. So overall the eglu is 5 stars but the run and ladder 3 stars.

It took much longer than the estimated 2 hours to put together, however end result was good. I had hoped for one of the "fun" colours (pink, red) but only green or purple available in Australia. Have not yet purchased the chooks so can't say how they will like their home!

This Eglu has been fantastic. Love the rain proof feed container, the little rain tight house they have with adequate roosting perches, a comfy egg laying spot,great easy access to get the eggs,the slide out tray has been brilliant for ease of fertilising the garden with chicken manure and it 's so far been fox proof because of the skirt on it.

One improvement which could be incorporated is a triangular piece of plastic moulding easily attached to the coop floor to contain the shavings/straw within the egg laying area. Also it might contain a superficial bubble which could be used initially to stop the hens sitting on the nest box overnight. Then removed once they have learnt to roost on the roosting area.

We love our Go Up. I am soooo impressed with the ease of cleaning - I hardly even consider it a chore! We have a very small backyard and this fits in perfectly and the girls have loved it from day one. The one part I'm not so keen on is the feeding container - it's hard to take the lid off and it's depth means it can hold ALOT of pellets but it's a struggle for the girls to get to it once it's below half way.

I'm a first time chook owner that purchased the Eglu Go Up Chicken Coop with 2M Run on wheels. It took a while to set up but was easy to do as the instructions are very clear. I have 3 Bantam Leghorns and they love their safe cosy home. Run is very easy to move and our grass is thick and spongy. The Eglu is so easy to access and clean. I also purchased the Chicken swing and the 21m fencing. The Omlet products are some of the best, well thought out designs I have seen in ages. Thanks so much Omlet!

Prompt delivery, excellent product, easy to assemble.

Having worked out how to construct it this is a super piece of equipment. The fact that it is so easy to move & clean with a hose make it infinitely more practical than any chicken keeping houses or runs we've had in the past ! It is therefore easy to keep it looking attractive & not the standard hen house mess!

Really delighted with my eglu go up. Lovely design, easy to clean, cosy dry and warm for my chucks but... the cover for the feeder is IMPOSSIBLE to click in place and to remove. Friends have tried too but it's justy nor doable. Other than that. Delighted!

Great produce with accurate assembly instructions. Staff were friendly and obliging and goods were delivered promptly. Eglu go up coop is well designed and easy to clean. So we have three happy chickens!!
