Karen & co. Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 PS I think it looks dead cool and trendy and I can't believe how small the chickens look in the run!!! That's what I thought too! karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Its a bit rude Omlet didn't let us see it first though - or invite us all to the launch party! I imagine there will be some very red faces over this.... can't imagine they wanted it out..... yet.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I thought that too, "bet they didn't want us seeing that" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did wonder about that......but First News comes out every Friday and is available to anyone and sold widely (even seen it in tesco) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Good job it came out then Dan! You might be one of the very first owners. I really want one now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Will they continue to sell the mark 2 I guess all of our questions will be answred sooner or later. There's no real rush is there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Too late for us.......... The shape of the run will make it easier to add extensions I would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheilaz Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Yes, I read it that way, Fee. Bad day at work, Dan? Congrats to Pam for being the first to spot it. The wheels look good, and the nestboxes & poop trays, & space under the Eglu.... Hope you do get one soon Dan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theherd123 Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I'm really not sure about it to be honest Yes i know that you mean, i feel a bit like that too Would like to see it in the flesh before i buy one i think, but 10 chickens!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hillfamily Posted March 9, 2007 Author Share Posted March 9, 2007 Congrats to Pam for being the first to spot it. I was sitting at home with my cuppa whilst my son had his hair cut when I turned the page of First News and saw the article. MARK 3 I yelled, much to the amazement of our hairdresser Ollie of course knew what I meant. (although our hairdresser is getting better at expecting the unexpected when she comes to our house ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Not at all what I was expecting! Is it for real? What an odd way to launch it!! You'd think that Omlet would have mentioned it here!! If they want someone to test drive one....I'll volunteer!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I'm still not sure about the styling, it's not THAT different from the prototype that we saw. That's all theoretical anyway because I can't afford one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigchickenfan Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Hi, its johannes from Omlet. Well, the coops out the bag so to speak! Sorry you didn't hear it from us but First News has been very unprofessional and printed a picture that they weren't supposed to until April 2nd. Still they have a name to uphold so I guess they were just doing their job. Anyway I can confirm that that is the new eglu cube, seen from the back. As you can imagine we are working very hard on the finishing touches to the new eglu cube, it's looking fantastic (much better in the flesh - that grainy photo doesn't do it any justice) and we are confident of launching in time for Easter. We can take names and numbers for those that want to be first in line (they have got the price wrong, we haven't confirmed that yet) but we won't take any deposits or payments until its officially launched. Thanks for your patience, I know it's been an unbearable wait and we promise we're working as fast as possible to get the eglu cube on Omlet.co.uk!
