ali-s Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I really like it now I have seen a better photo of the cube Would like to see what it is like inside. I'm not sure that my Pekin could get up the ladder, the rungs seem far apart Are there any doors in the side of the run near the Cube ? for clearing away poo, woodchips etc? 4 metres (If you add the extension) is a long way to stretch when cleaning. I need more details New car New Cube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali-s Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Mine (if I had one ) would be on a permanent base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Hmm... Just realised the ladder is the same colour as the Eglu cube. This must be a bit of creative artistry isn't it? Surely its wooden? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Maybe they've used that rubber paint, so that it doesn't rot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnP Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Is it just me, or does the ladder not reach the ground? And how are you supposed to roll the cube away from the run when the run stretches all the way around? We need details! Ooooohhhhh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocchick Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Is it just me, or does the ladder not reach the ground?: I thought that too Surely the ladder is plastic like the eglu? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1984 Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 More phots required please Omlet. Looks good so far, need dimensions to decide about the extension or not. I wonder, can the chooks jump onto the top of this run like they can on the mk2? Not convinced yet. George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallina Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 It's only 3 metres with the extension, not four. (And one of the original two metres is under the Eglu.) It's not huge, which is a bonus if you don't have much room for it, but not so good for ten chickens if they are kept in all the time.... I am dithering. I would like more details about the dimensions, and how it all works. It is important to me which side the egg-port is on -- or are there two of them? Does the person who delivers it put it together for you? It looks so nice. And I am completely won over by purple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 I guess if you order chickens, then the answer would be yes, but for those of us who aren't, then I think its a courier and a DIY job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Does the person who delivers it put it together for you? Oh I hope so! I'm a person who reads instructions when it won't go together after an hour or two so I'm really hoping I have a bit of help !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
