eve Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Hi i have wooden coop and need a secure run as my garden has no grass due to my chickens keep getting into the garden. Omlet has a sale on. Would the small run be big enough for 5 hens to start with then i will extend it in a couple of months advice please before i buy . Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Do you mean the Omlet walk-in (or Lo-Rise) run? I can't see the dimensions but you need to allow approximately 1m x 1m per hen - so for five you would want 2.5m x 2m for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvachicken Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Very jealous too. I almost ordered one once before until hubby said it wouldn't fit in the space I had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmashazzie Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I too am very very tempted. I have a wooden walk in run but would love one of these and I could get a few ducklings too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

louise womble Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 My job for today is......putting my W in R together! Cheers for the discount Omlet ! I had been dithering for months - the £100 off clinched the deal! But I didn't really save as I went for the taller version when I was looking at the lo rise one! Wish me luck in building it - I could be gone a while....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long time not here - haven't been able to log on or rejoin for some reason for ages! But it's let me in now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
