rufusrooster Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 just got this of ebay, really good quality and holds about 20/24 eggs, not sure how it compares to the one available from the omlet shop but no problems with large eggs, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350224429170&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chook n Boo Mum Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Freddie is the Egg Skelter Lady, she supplies to Omlet, but sells as their own company too...must be supplying to the Orpington Ebay people too. Mine's Aga green & is wonderful, I may have to get another one though...and am considering them as Christmas pressies for various people...to show off my eggs in their houses!!!! Some of my eggs are a bit wonky in the shape department & can turn in the skelter, but nothing which isn't easily rectified by a gentle push.

chickencam Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I have a lovely cream one that my BIL & SIL bought for me for my birthday. Big eggs used to get stuck at the bottom because I think that it had got squashed in transit, it was vert tightly wrapped in bubble wrap. My ED had tweaked it and it is fine now. I love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Mine is Silver and looks fabulous. Cookie - You HAVE to get one, its a Health and Safety issue - so you know you are always eating the oldest egg.

sjp Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 how high are they? and will they fit in the fridge? my kitchen faces south and gets really hot with it been shut up all day so i keep my eggs in the fridge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Just been off and measured mine for you. Its 20cm high and 33 cms wide at its widest point, so it should fit in a fridge, but I've got the Bantum version as that was fine for large and small eggs.
