How many chickens in Eglu Cube

[Richard]

The fun comes when the Orps get in first. I don't close the door at night, and the Orps like to sit in the entrance looking out during the night. So all three of them try to push head and shoulders into the doorway so as to get the favoured overnight position.

 

If the Buff Sussex or the others are still outside it makes for an amusing session as they try to force their way in past the big girls blocking the way!

 

They always manage!

 

The orps don't have any problems at all getting into the Cube - I haven't tried them in my Mark 1 Eglu as I suspect that might be a bit of a squash through the doorway.

Lovely photos, especially the cochins.

 

 

We had a garden once. I think we definitely need to build a run.

Well, they are extra fluffy as they all had a bath at the weekend!! drying with the hairdryer gives that extra volume!!

That happens to me too . Thank goodness for straighteners . (I am talking about me and not my chooks, in case anyone's about to call ChookLine .)

Chelsea, lovely pictures - so glad now I have changed my order to purple.

DH is putting a large door on our run - looks like you have double doors on yours to get the cube out, why oh why did we not think of that

 

Love the fluffy feet

I just love the fluffy breeds Pam I sat in the garden today with my broody chook Star sat on my lap for an hour, she is just sooooo fluffy and cuddly at the moment and who would think that with a chicken!!

 

I would really like a black orp and a brahma to complete my fluffy collection.

 

I will keep working on hubby

I know! photobucket doesnt give you the option of slowing it down

 

I think with photobucket now its easier to do the slideshow than resizing the photos

Know that feeling - internet explorer kept crashing on me everytime I tried to resize

[Blackrocksrock]

Lovely pics and great set up - love the cube

If you click on the photo it comes up with a resize button, rather than the edit feature. It takes seconds as you don't have to wait for the red resize screen to load.
