2009 Omlet cube and run for sale

[karlotta]

In another thread this was said...

 

The couple who run the garden centre are really nice and friendly we had a lovely long chat. Apparently (you may already know this of course) Omlet only allow three retailers to sell the go, and only the go. I said a cube would look fab next to the go but they are not allowed one. He also said that Omlet are bringing out some new products in January that they would be able to sell - have I missed something ?? does anyone know of new products next year ??

 

Any ideas/info on what might be coming in Jan?

 

Feel free to add wide speculation!

I should of added that the chap had said that he thought it was already known through the 'Omlet community', that 's why I thought I had missed something. Do bear in mind that he could be completely wrong, I'd feel a bit of a fool if I get everyone all excited, speculating what it could be and it turns out to be nonsence - but we could have fun coming up with ideas .

Yes, of course Shall we start the ball rolling ?? I think they should make a WIR, but the panel frames to be made in moulded plastic like the coops so you can have the run co-ordinated with your or etc.

That sounds good!

 

I'd also like a cube nest box divider and there was talk a while back about a woodgrain pattern for the eglus!

[Lewis]

It always comes up...

Turkey/Goose housing

[karlotta]

Duck/goose housing could be likely... I had to buy a green frog design house for my ducks as there was nothing in the omlet range...

[winterwren]

I am sure I saw goose and quail housing in the shop ?

[Lewis]

There is a duck and quail version of the classic

 

I use the Go minus roosting bars for mine - perfect

[karlotta]

Not tall enough for runners though... My four would have to get awfully cosy to fit!

Just had a chat with a nice man at Omlet. My cube was delivered on Monday but we haven't been able to put it together as some of the brackets are missing. Whilst I was on the phone, I had a quick chat.

 

Apparently, Omlet's new products are a sort of modular walk in run that fits onto the cube and a new cube on the same lines as the eglu Go.

Sounds interesting!

Really? Oooooo I do hope so

[Aunty e]

What??????????????? Now they tell me?

 

 

I guess I probably couldn't have afforded an omlet WIR anyway. It certainly wouldn't have been as cheap as this one. Keep telling myself that. ARGH.

[beach chick]

could be an interesting idea, and I think it could look fabulous - but I should think it would have to be quite expensive to provide the same size/flexibility as a wooden run, whether you build it yourself or get someone else to do it.

[lillybettybabs]

ooo sounds good!

[Lewis]

Hadn't heard about the WIR. Can see it being quite expensive with a 1m eglu extension being £80

Interesting to see how its done + all the support it'll need to stand up.

 

Really good idea though

 

Cube Go sounds good - esp for moving around + transporting abroad etc Hope the cube version has an egg port ... thats the one negative about the Go

Oh and where its made

[sezra]

Maybe the Cube Go will be a bit cheaper? Then I can afford one and have more hens!
