why are they so dark, when what you want in winter is as MUCH light as you can get?

cleae tarps are soooo much better!

Or a WIR best

[Redwing]

You're absolutely right, I have just taken off all the Omlet covers (I have about eight on various runs) and have replaced them with clear Ikea shower curtains which is much better, poor hens were going to bed early afternoon

[Plum]

And me but in summer they do the job. I've spent this morning cleaning the run out and have just been washing muddy Ikea shower curtains. Yuk job this time of year.

I agree Sandy, I use that large cover over the bunnies in the summer to keep them in the shade. I tend to use clear tarps over the chooks most of the year, wirth a sunshade if necessary in the summer.

I thought the Omlet winter covers were a bit dark as well, plus they don't cover the whole of the run including the sides, so they don't keep it dry either.

 

I imagine they will be very useful in the summer.

Sounds like clear tarps should be something Omlet could consider ... I'm sure they'd sell a fair few!

[The Dogmother]

I did mention them once, but apparently, they can't get them made for cheaper than they are available online. At least that's what they said about 2 or 3 years ago.

[Lewis]

Ah ok. I thought they'd be able to buy in bulk. I spotted one company that sold the sheets in massive rolls, designed for industrial use that you hem yourself, and that was cheaper, but we don't need 50, only one

[The Dogmother]

That was what I thought, but I think they want to buy them in ready made.
