Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.

The Omlet Eglu Cube sits at number 8 in this guide and is the most expensive item on the page at £769.00. It is a plastic chicken house: the listing describes the material as 100% recyclable UV-stabilised polyethylene with powder-coated steel, sitting on two levels behind one door. The first bullet tells you what the price does not buy — 'PLEASE NOTE: This is the chicken coop only. Run is not included.' So the single largest number in the price column buys a house, not an enclosure.

The name calls it a chicken tractor, a term that normally means a movable house with a run attached; the £769 listing is the house alone, and the only components it lists as included are a fixed tray and a nesting box. Wheels appear in a reviewer's account of moving it, not in the contents list. The listing also never states how many hens it holds: it recommends the coop for large breeds, which is a statement about bird size rather than capacity, and the reviews supply the number the listing withholds, describing a flock of six piling in every night. The rating is 4.8 from 25 ratings, and the histogram beneath it has only two bars, 76 and 24, with the 1-, 2- and 3-star rows empty — those two bars only reconcile with the stated 25 ratings if you read them as percentages rather than counts. Two more fields look like they came from another product: 'Dog Breed Size: Large' and a best sellers rank that places the same coop 25,885th in Mobile Phone Accessories. Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing for this coop; we have not tested it ourselves.

What buyers actually say

Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon

“Great coop for 6 chickens predator proof easy to clean got the auto door too works great with the app so easy to maintain love it”

“I have a flock of 6 hens. All our average sizes, though three are small-avg. They pile in every night, and no need to worry if you add the auto door. Assembling requires two people. It helps if a person can hold the pieces in place while another assembles. That way, you get a tight seal. Our girls could not be happier.Coop can be a little warm in mid-west heat waves. I have the ability to leave the poop cater off to cool the ladies during hot nights.”

Questions people ask

Does the Omlet Eglu Cube come with a run?

No. Omlet's first bullet reads 'PLEASE NOTE: This is the chicken coop only. Run is not included.' The £769 buys the house on its own.

How many hens does the Omlet Eglu Cube house?

The listing never gives a number. It recommends the coop for large breeds, which describes bird size rather than capacity. The reviews go further than the listing: one owner describes a flock of six hens, and says they all pile in every night.

What comes in the box?

The listing's Included Components field names a fixed tray and a nesting box, and Number of Items is 1. Reviewers mention a wheel attachment and an automatic door, but neither of those appears in the listing as included.

What is the Omlet Eglu Cube made of, and is it cool in summer?

The listing says 100% recyclable UV-stabilised polyethylene with powder-coated steel, and claims the coop is weatherproof, cool in summer and warm in winter. One reviewer with six hens reports the coop can be a little warm during heat waves.

Why does the spec table mention a dog breed size?

Because the listing carries a field labelled 'Dog Breed Size' reading 'Large' on a chicken coop. Nothing else in the listing explains that field, so it is safest to treat it as a listing error rather than a measurement.

What warranty does the Omlet Eglu Cube carry?

The listing states a 180-day money-back guarantee.
