grracee Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 My auntie's landlady had a eglu a while ago for her chickens and has thrown it on the skip!! I asked my auntie to have a look and see and if it was in good condition as if it was I'd have it!! The only thing is the door is broken, can you get replacements??

Sam Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 (edited) I'm sure I read somewhere that you can ring omlet up and they have spares. Threw an eglu in a skip?! I know people sometimes throw good things in a skip, but an eglu?! Edited March 21, 2011 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Go get it quick . Even if you can't get a replacement door, you can still use it. I never closed the door on mine except in the harshest weather . I'm sure you could fashion some sort of door out of something if you felt you needed to! I'd phone Omlet though, they're always really helpful . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grracee Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 Thanks. I know, we were really surprised that she had thrown it in there! A while ago my auntie mentioned she had it hanging about not being used and I said I'd have it off her, even give her money for it. She asked and apparently her son was going to have it but he obviously didn't and now it's ended up in the skip..... She's not really known to look after things well and just buys things for the sake of it so will definitely ask if it's still there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Well? Did you get it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grracee Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 Well? Did you get it ? Sadly, no. They had chucked an old bathroom suite on top of it so was damaged. Gutted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grracee Posted March 26, 2011 Author Share Posted March 26, 2011 I know, I honestly can't believe it!!! I'd never throw anything like that away, even if I didn't want it there is always places like freecycle! Can't understand her to be honest!

chickenNutter Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 It was so nearly an 'eglu of fate'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
