Uses for a dog crate...........

[Snadger]

1) Put a dog in it!

2)Transport chickens in it

3) Put your brassica seedlings in it to keep the pigeons off them

4) Dry your onions with it by putting onions on top of it with the foliage facing downwards through the mesh

5) Put polythene around it and turn it into a moveable cloche

Ha-Ha! I have three, of varying sizes, and all bought locally, and very very cheaply from the world's favourite internet auction site. So far, I have used them variously, as;

A Puppy Den.
A Broody Coop (lined with cardboard sheeting).
A Chick pen (cable tied two together), to integrate them safely with the bigger birds.
A Cockerel pen.
For transporting Chooks in the Car.
Ditto Geese.
For securing our ancient and demented Siamese Cat safely away from a visiting Cat-eating Spaniel.
As 3D fencing/barricade to keep our Dog in the allocated area of garden (he hasn't learned to jump!).
Folded flat and placed across a doorway to keep wet/dirty dogs in the kitchen.
Dog bed airer, when the washing line was full.
Make-shift table, when the garden table was already in use.
Currently have the biggest one in the back of my estate car, so the Dog can have his own space, without my tools getting in his way, and I can also open all the doors and/or windows, and he can't booger off!

Worth every penny!
