beccauk Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Hi just ordered a cube yesterday and it gives estimated delivery the 29th april . Just wondered how long others may of had to wait? I didn't see why should pay extra for delivery date when having to pay postage when spending £500.00 plus. was so excited about ordering it and thought id order it early for easter weekend to put it together as I was off work. Many thanks becca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplemaniacs Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 It is a long time ago that we ordered our eglu and then a cube but we waited 3 to 4 weeks for each of them. Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beccauk Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Gosh really that long, maybe they should say that somewhere , maybe they do lol. Im an inpatient person lol and jusy want to see all my girls together as we had two coops for them and we have had them sharing the run for the last week. I took over a year to decide to get one its alot of money for me to spend on a chicken coop but had a second hand eglu and really did think they were great made life easier. Ive never even spent that much money on myself, in a way im telling myself I have as il benefit but its for my girls. many thanks becca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beccauk Posted April 17, 2014 Author Share Posted April 17, 2014 Well ive only had chickens 2 years now starting with a second hand eglu and have always dreamt of one day having a cube for my girls, now finally got the money to get one. So its been along time waiting, was going to try get a second hand one to save some money but they still seem to go for alot in good condition, not very much extra in end for a new shiney one with warranty becca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tara Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 I agree if there's not a lot of difference ,, I saved £100 in my eglu go but had it been a saving of £50 or so I'd have brought brand new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beccauk Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 Well yes but 1 parcel didnt come which had the lid , sides and all the screws and bits , then when It came the day after the lid had a threaded lug missing go put a bolt for the lid hook on one side, they are sending a new lid out . Its always my luck lol il put a photo on at weekend hopefully get it fitted if weathers nices. The other half decided to help by starting to put it together without me lol between that and my fabric coming to make a quilt for the first time, along with giving one of the chickens a stronge AB corse orally for a ovary / egg production bacterial infection, shes been up and down since last August started with a lash egg. becca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
