sarahg Posted October 9, 2007 Author Share Posted October 9, 2007 I've decided - I rang omlet and I have an eglu reserved until tomorrow when I will arrange delivery! OH has agreed to have one so I'm so excited - found a few second hand but by the time I had collected the petrol would have been the same as the reconditoned unit...so ...i'm going to jion you all! I'm so excited!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 oh, congratulations - that didn't take you long, then! You will not regret it. What colour are you getting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahg Posted October 9, 2007 Author Share Posted October 9, 2007 Green! Not very exciting but it fits with the garden! The other colours are great but I prefer green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisnrob Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 How come all the recons are green? That's all they had available when we got ours... I like to think it's because people returned them and bought a bolder colour instead Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bondinho Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 The eglu will definitely fit in your Focus estate - I picked mine up in my sisters Focus the other day - it all squeezed in just about once the run had been unlcipped etc. It s"Ooops, word censored!"ed the roof a bit but no damage done Hope you find omlet ok!

Guest Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 my recon cube was green too, wanted purple but green was my second choice as it does fit in nicely with the garden and I'd already painted the run green. Mum now thinks we should keep the eglu too. Oh how the anti-chicken has changed. Although she let them out of the cube this morning and June had laid already (in the same bit of the nesting box where she slept and poohed) but Pengy "begged" for her to open the Eglu - so she did. Big softie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahg Posted October 10, 2007 Author Share Posted October 10, 2007 They had purple as well - I've found it hard to find green recons actually, but got lucky yesterday - do they come with all the accessories though - glug and grub,shade etc....

The Dogmother Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Brilliant news! You'll never look back now They often use green at shows, which is why they come up as recons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 All the accessories are with them. Nothing looked old or used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrocksrock Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Well done on a recon - I have just heard on Monday 8th that they had none at the moment so I just missed out. Hope to join you all as soon as I can get one myself. Not looking forward to the bad weather though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizzyLizzie Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Well done on a recon - I have just heard on Monday 8th that they had none at the moment so I just missed out. Hope to join you all as soon as I can get one myself. Not looking forward to the bad weather though. I looked one morning and there were 3 cubes - they had gone by the afternoon. We aren't in a position to buy one yet, but I'll be keeping my eyes open when we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
