Frying Pan Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Sadly, the last of our three chickens died last week ☹️ I loved having them, and the eggs were superb, but 'we' have decided not to get any more ☹️ So, that means we have our Omlet Eglu Classic up for grabs. It's not quite 2 years old, and is this model here, with the 'Grub' and 'Glug' feeders and drinkers and green sun screen. The Eglu itself and the sunscreen are a little faded, but they all do that. We've also got almost a whole bag of Omlet's own chicken food, some grit, loads of corn (or is it wheat?) and a sack of layers pellets. Basically, all you need to get going other than the chickens and a bit of straw for them to roost on. Chickens are c. £10 each. Looking at Omlet's own Marketplace and eBay, these seem to be worth at least £200 used (it was about £475 new with the chickens I think). It can be dissassembled to fit in most cars for transport. Collection only, 5 mins from J11 M40 (Banbury). Some pictures (taken when it was new) here - I will take some more of it as it is now.

6speedmanual Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 What are the eggsact dimensions. It seem quite an investment to lay down for a home egg farm. Sorry! Couldn't resist a chicky post..... Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CageyH Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 You guys have fallen foul of the good eggsample of blatchat set before with your feather-weight puns, trying to peck away with poor yolks. It's about time you came out of your shells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
