You won’t find any subservient chickens in these poultry housing units, which were thought by some to have been an elaborate April Fool’s joke — but were printed as the real deal in the Times of London, The Register, and elsewhere. Designed so that city-dwelling humans can add a little bokbok to their daily lives, the iMac-like eglu may just be “the world’s most stylish and innovative chicken house and [a] perfect way to keep chickens as pets.”

UPDATE:
Erin says, “A fresh-egg-lovin’ pal of mine showed me the Eglu last week. It’s no hoax, but it isn’t designed for “city-dwellers” as such – most cities prohibit keeping poultry for health reasons, but there are a lot of little hamlets (omelettes?) in England where it would be perfect. Apparently their design was inspired by the iMac. Perhaps this heralds a new era in chicken coop fashions? :D”
