Dancing Gal Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Hmm I'd pretty much made up my mind that I would get an Eglu but now I'm wondering if I should get a cube. My garden is on a slope, quite a hill actually, not sure how I'll settle cube and it's run on a slope. All the pic's I've seen seem to be on the flat.

tara Posted September 2, 2007 Author Share Posted September 2, 2007 Do u have any flat space as a cube is really worth it it brilliant my birds seem more happy with loads of room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheChookKeeper Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 ...My garden is on a slope, quite a hill actually, not sure how I'll settle cube and it's run on a slope. All the pic's I've seen seem to be on the flat. My first cube arrives on 11th September, and my garden is on a bit of a slope - I have ordered some of the Omlet run clips to help hold it down! Luckily, my garden does tail off a bit at the bottom, but I think the clips might help you out on an uneven surface! hope that helps!

Dancing Gal Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 No I don't have a suitable flat bit. The only flat area is quite near to the house, plus it gets all the run off from the slope and is wet year round. So I couldn't put the girls in a soggy area anyway. I think with the clips I may be able to anchor the run on the slope and use a cube. I know hubbs is worried that if I get the cube I'll want to get lots more birds than the 3 we intend to get. Probably true since they are gorgeous. I reckon we should be able to site the cube quite level but let the run slope. I'll figure it out somehow.

Dancing Gal Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Still can't decide - the cube price is okay but the run is sooo expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
