Omlet cube and run

[Mercedes55]

You need to turn the door handle to unlock it before you can open it.

 

It won't turn

 

It will pull out and push in, but that's all. I've put my head through the side and I can see the metal bit that is supposed to be opening and shutting the door, but it isn't hooked into the door, which I guess is why it's staying closed. I am hoping my OH will be able to sort it out

Just need to brave the rotton weather.

Thanks again,

Night night.

You probably need to centre it again with the bars on the wheels. I find that the plastic moves a bit when ever I change the position of the cube so just have to fiddle a bit.

 

I've just experimented with removing the divider because I have four Polands and 3 ex-bats, and one of each decided that they NEEEDED to lay at the same time, in the same place!!! NOW! There were some fisti-cuffs one day so I just took the divider out - and bingo! they now lay side by side and peace has descended so I'm leaving it out.

 

Admittedly, they were used to laying there, but I don't see why, if you put some rubber eggs in to give them a hint, your hens wouldn't twig this is where they go to lay.

Well my OH managed to get the door open, although it was a bit of a job. I had managed to get the Cube a bit wonky as when I was moving the lid of the Cube one of the wheels moved and as it's so heavy I wasn't able to get it level again. We had so much rain here yesterday that I thought the Cube would be flooded inside as I hadn't managed to get the roof back on properly either, but when I had a look inside it didn't actually seem too bad, just a few drops of rain had got in.
