Show cages

[emzee]

I am going to a chicken show in a few weeks and I don't have enough cages to carry my silkies in. Does anyone know where I can buy some inexpensive cages? Or how I can make some?

use a box if you have too you could go to like a flea market or to TSC i actually got one of my carriers at a show b/c i bought to many and didnt have enough cages

check out dog cages and dog kennels on crais list There are always a bunch of them and I dont see why you cant use them. Although I dont know show rules

Some use plastic dog carriers or just cardboard boxes......(note) some shows dont like for you to bring chickens in cardboard boxes so check the rules first...

Plastic totes work great, just make sure you have some air holes for circulation. It's inexpensive and an easy way to transport birds to shows. I've also seen people use tomato boxes, they already have the holes in them.
