Nacktschnecken omlet Cube

[Ain't Nobody Here]

I'm sure there's a few Omleteers in Essex. How about doing a new thread with "Can anyone lend me an eglu run? (Chelmsford, Essex)" in the title? Or summat like that .

Bit of an update from me!

 

Husband has said no to a walk-in run BUT YES to a CUBE!!! Hee hee hee. So I have gone from a eglu and small run to a cube and 2metre run in a day.

 

We have just been looking at linkabord as would like this round the edge of the cube.

 

He said I can ring tomorrow to book the slot for delivery.

 

Now I am over-excited!

When I owned an Eglu I located it on the lawn to start off with and secured the run skirt with ordinary plastic tent pegs. This gave a very secure structure and due to the Omlet design, a very fox resistant run.

 

Just seen your latest post mazzyc as I'm writing this, well done - I'm sure you will not be disappointed

Congratulations, mazzyc!

 

Just one more thing. What colour cube are you ordering? It's so exciting, waiting for your first Omlet delivery. I can still remember the anticipation.

 

I am seriously thinking of trading in my and for a as that would mean space for more hens and (hopefully) less cleaning!

You were pretty excited even before this .

 

Your OH sounds like a pushover . You'll be able to get more chickens, extra run extensions, anything you like at this rate .

 

Congratulations, btw, what colour are you choosing ?

Gone for purple - husband doesnt know that yet though. Initially i said he could choose but then i just ordered it!

 

I chose 2 ginger ones and one black one - I think three is enough considering I am a total novice and thats interesting about introducing more being difficult so think I will just stick with my three little ladies!

 

Everyone is so nice on here and helpful and invites to visit are so kind.

 

I have got in my head about most things like what to border it with,what bedding to use - just now need to see what is best to anchor the run skirt down with (the yellow tent pegs look good) and what i should cover it with to protect from the rain.

 

Going to go and measure inthe garden now to prepare husband as think he doesnt realise how big it is - hee hee hee!
