thenewchick Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Does anyone know how high is the Eglu Cube from the ground to the start of the ladder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MummyHen Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 On my cube that is on its original wheels it's about 8 inches and have then put a couple of blocks of wood in front to act as a step - which helps On my other cube which is off its wheels and on a table the ladder there is no gap the ladder touches the floor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetriley52 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I have had my cube for a week now and it is on wheels within my run. For two nights I had to put my chickens in but my Orpington took longer. I realised that her little legs and short wings stopped her from jumping onto the first rung of the ladder. I put a block at the foot of ladder and now she goes in with no problems. I leave the door open which she sits half in and half out, on guard. No foxes can get into my run which is 2 metres high, 5 metres long and 2.5 metres width. I love the cube and would certainly recommend it to anyone who has chickens. It is so easy to clean and the girls are much fresher when they come out. I use the cardboard bedding which again, I would recommend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
