Sp77 Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 Hi all i am getting 5 or 6 silkies they are not bantams but bearded silkies. What size eglu would people recommend? I worry about the cube being too big? And if any one has the base measurements of the stand of the cube and go up that would be amazing thanks Siân 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are set on at least 5 silkies, I would definitely go for a Cube instead of a Go Up. Do please also consider run size when you decide on the number of chickens. Large fowl chickens will benefit from at least 1 m2 per chicken. But more is always better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Definitely don’t worry about the Cube being too big. They’ll snuggle together if they’re ever cold. I agree with Cattails, the Go Up would be a squeeze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
