Lewis Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Has anyone seen these new Carefree Coops I saw them at The Fed in December and thought they looked quite good, didn't realise they were made by Brinsea at the time though! I just thought the sliding door was a good idea, a bit more thought out than some of the earlier recycled plastic houses! They come in 2 sizes, £250 for the smaller coop for 3-6 and £360 for the larger 6-10 birds (£338 and £470 with runs) so not too badly priced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilipCaldwell Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 interesting, but I think you would have to go a long way to beat an Eglu, looks no where near as sturdy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 They've obviously never seen a full poo tray . Looks like that slide out tray would just leave all the poo behind . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bramble Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Looks quite nice compared with some of the other (non-Omlet) plastic housing I've seen, but the poo tray doesn't look too clever as ANH has said ... and wooden roosting bars, that's a bit of step backwards, isn't it????

Pearls007 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Um, is it just me - or do they look like compost bins to anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Ditto about the poo tray! Its ok apart from that I think the best plastic house I have seen (aside from the Eglu of course) is the Solway Eco hen loft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
