Chicken shack Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 Not sure if this will work but here is a link to a new chicken house. http://cubeme.com/blog/2010/09/29/the-nogg-modern-chicken-coop/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 Err, not sure if I like it or not. It's aesthetically pleasing but I'd like to see the inside (and how easy it is to clean ). They're all jumping on the Omlet bandwagon, aren't they . They'll never beat the Eglu, in my opinion . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 It is certainly lovely to look at - no run though, would look good on a shelf in the corner of a WIR. Would like to see more pics of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jill the potter Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Cooo that looks beautiful - doesn't say how much though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucklamp Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Hmm, didn't realise that our was monotonous. It certainly does look good new but how well will it look in a year or two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickiepiggies Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 i doubt it wouldn't take long for a couple of very hungry foxes to dismantle it!! i'll be sticking with my cube.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alet_chicken Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 There's a picture of the inside here. Not sure more than two of my girls would fit in it at the same time if I'm honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweety Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 It was featured in one of the weekend supplements and, if I remember correctly, it is priced at around £1500! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken shack Posted December 1, 2010 Author Share Posted December 1, 2010 Good grief I thought I spent enough on the cube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Can't say I care for it all that much. Whilst stylish, it doesn't have much going on inside......and no run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angie Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 I don't like this....the wood will swell in the damp, the inside looks worryingly squished for 2 birds never mind 4, the metal work on the drop down pop hole looks like an accident waiting to happen,..the ventilation at the top is okay but where does the air come in at the bottom...and where is the droppings tray?.........I know i am hard to please.. i will stay with my cube.

The Dogmother Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 A bit over-designed if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Won't judge until they give dimensions but OH would probably prefer it filled with beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jill the potter Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Won't judge until they give dimensions but OH would probably prefer it filled with beer. or egg nogg ?!?!?! (sorry - it is Christmas) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggasperated Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Where's the nest box - the top shelf just looks flat as if the eggs could just roll off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillybettybabs Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 How do you clean it out? For that amount of money i would expect it heated, self cleaning and a flat screen tv built in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sari Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 A case of style over substance, if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jill the potter Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 It was featured in one of the weekend supplements and, if I remember correctly, it is priced at around £1500! What? That's taking 'designer' too far. I wonder if whoever buys it will have 'designer' chickens who do masses and masses of 'designer' poo!!!!!!

Chicken shack Posted December 1, 2010 Author Share Posted December 1, 2010 If they did we could mix it in our clay to make designer clay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jill the potter Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Mmmmm been thinking about a new line of work..maybe instead of well made and unique - which doesn't sell at the moment - I could go for ridiculously over-priced and useless!!!

green Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Doesn't look very practical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beach chick Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 it was in the Sunday Times yesterday as well. with a comment along the lines of "it will pay for itself by the 8000th egg" - which I thought was quite apt. I do rather like the look of it though, I can see it looking fabulous in a town garden. but not v. practical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweety Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I have just found the supplement which featured the Nogg, and I was wrong about the price - it is £1,950! The perfect Christmas present for the hen who has everything! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alis girls Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Frankly if I saw that in my back yard I'd think the martians had landed - I dont like it or the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
