Eglu Cube Coop For Sale

[Luvachicken]

When I cleaned out my pooh trays today there was quite a lot of water in one of them.

I'm pretty certain the chickens didn't do it as they've not done any pooh like that before.

I thought the eglu was meant to be weatherproof. I guess the wind must have blown the rain in through the ventilation gaps. Any ideas how to stop that ?

seems like these problems keep on rearing up time and time again,i had this prob and as i didnt bolt the roof on i pulled it as far as i could towards the back of the cube this seemed to make a big differance,not sure if you can do this with yours but if you can give it a go,hope this helps a little. goodluck

Do you live in a very exposed position? We are rather high in the Pennines here, and the rain is often driven in horizontally on the wind. My WIR was pretty swampy this morning for this very reason, and the bedding in my eglu was damp.

Unfortunately I don't live in such a lovely location as the Pennines , but in good old Hampshire. My garden does face N'west ish but isn't that big. It's protected a bit by neighbours trees but i think the night it rained it was also very windy. Even my curtains were moving indoors, I think the rain must have just got blown into the cube. I'll have to see if it happens again next time it rains.
