Guest Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I'm thinking of getting an Eglu. Has anyone any suggestions as to what colour I should get ? Are any better than the rest ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 They are all beautiful, Malcolm! Mine's green so I'm a bit biassed towards that colour but they all look smashing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Hi there. Well I'd say don't just think about it get one! It's the best thing we ever did. I loved my green eglu so much that I got a second. I wanted it to blend but it depends what you like. Each colour can make a different statement. Let us know which you choose! BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Is this going to run as long as Murdo's similar request? We have 2 green and 1 pink - and I'm after a purple one if they start making them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 ...and the green ones are painted. One with bluebells and one with foxgloves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Yes, so far green is the dominant colour - so there's your answer Malcy-Murdo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Has he really got nothing better to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 As Murdo doesn't own a green one I suggest the imminant purchase of aforementioned 'green eglu' would be a just punishment for his 'high jinx' Shall I give the guys a call and place the order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I don't think he has anything better to do so..... GO FOR GREEN MURDO!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 No! PINK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 I am usually quite reserved and not at all modernistic is such things - but I decided to be a bit daring and bought an orange one first. I didn't get it until November last year, and I must say that it really looks nice. It brightened up an otherwise dull winter garden, and with the green winter foliage of the conifer hedge (boring but came with the house) it looks great. In the summer the flower beds will be full of yellows, and blues and reds, like most summer flowers, and those will contrast wonderfully with the Eglu in the background. At the weekend I bought a green MK2, a second hand one, and again it looks lovely, next to the orange, but might be camouflaged else where. All th colours are lovely. I depends where you are going to site in your garden I guess. I have brown hens in the orange Eglu, which is a nice colour combination, and in the green one, lavender, orange, and black speckledy batams. So if you are into design, and colour co-ordination pick one that does not clash with you hens or surroungings (In case you think that I am some sort of control freak, the above was all tongue in cheek - but as an afterthought the logic is actually true. I picked orange because it was daring for me!) And it really looks cool Don't do green do a real colour. I want all of them and purple too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clare* Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 If I was to have another it would be PINK or ORANGE I have a Yellow one at the moment which I love Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Wonder what Murdo would suggest. BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murdo Posted March 21, 2006 Share Posted March 21, 2006 Thinking about it, MURDO, why don't you run another poll ! Whaddya mean - I'm over here ? Alright I admit it, it was a wind-up. I didn't think anyone would respond at al - I thought the overwhelming reaction would be NOOO! The Managing Director did say SuperKate would spot it at once. I said she wouldn't check straight away, but there's no hiding from those super powers. Shame on me for doubting. I did think of hiding my IP address behind a public proxy to make it more difficult, but that would have been cheating. Apologies and free pizza all round.
