How do you keep it closed?

Try a chain!

i used a budgee until it broke and using a chain is a brilliant idea

fordkindagirl · Sep 16, 2010

Just make sure you have some sort of clip/hook to keep the chain on it and the gate closed

If she keeps eating the chain, sell her to the carnival!! <rock>

We had a cow that would sit at the gate a play with the chain, could not figure out what the noise coming from the pens was, one day I watched her just sit there and lick it so it would go around and around the gate and post.
