hollyhardwick Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 hiya-does anybody have one of these? are they any good? I am thinking about getting one for my guinea piggies(have asked the lady at omlet and she said they are great for piggies) they are very expensive but if they are great then i dont mind paying my girls are worth it So any feedback would be great Sue x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendbert Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Eeek!! They're not cheap Omlet Eglu They look good though, but personally I'd be worried about how safe the run is - could a bun dig under it? Also, the 'house' bit is small, so when the weather is bad there doesn't seem to be much room to move around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh i was worried about the run,she says that they are fox proof etc etc but you can also buy the floor bit to stop the rabbits digging out..i thought the pod looked abit small aswell..cant seem to find the size of the actual pod...humm anyone with one and can let me know would be fabbo Sue x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wendbert Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 I like the idea of having a chicken one though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 Bobtails have an Eglu house on trial for rabbits and it's awful! For the money you would pay for one you could buy a lovely wendy house or something else spacious and safe! The problems are:- The run needs to be on absolute flat ground or the bunny can push out underneath, the indoor bit is too tiny for a pair of rabbits to lay down comfortably, there are no square edges in the house to put a litter tray against and there's no room anyway, the water bottle fitting makes the bottle at almost ground level, the ventilation in summer is negligable, etc etc. I used to think they looked great but having seen one for real, I now know better!

Ramsey Posted March 24, 2006 Report Share Posted March 24, 2006 I shouldnt think theyre that easy to clean either I think id get a big wendy house with a nice veranda instead with that money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hayley Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 Hi Did you get one of these in the end? I have had mine for approx 8 weeks now and have mixed feelings about it. I got the rabbit one for three GPs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollyhardwick Posted January 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 yes i did they are not in it at the mo (they come in for the winter) and i also have very mixed feelings-its not that easy to clean out and it gets really really dirty really quick,you know as they come in from the run that bit gets filthy i have tried to put paper there but they just tear it all up!I also have 3 pigs and the size seems ok..but wish i had not spent all that dosh now! sue xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
