ABSTRACT:
A flexible stall gate for partitioning an animal stall has a rigid frame having a top portion and a bottom portion. The top portion has horizontal and vertical cross-members or screen in a grid pattern and an opening from the top of the gate centrally located along the frontal width to allow the animal to extend its head and neck over the gate out of the stall. A frame of the bottom portion is framed by the downward extension of vertical frame members of the top portion which define the width of the gate and extend below a horizontal member of the bottom of the top portion. The downward extension of the vertical members terminate at the bottom of the stall door frame. The open expanse of the bottom portion between the downward extension of the vertical members is covered by a flexible elastic material which absorbs the impact of animal legs and hooves striking the bottom of the door to prevent injury to the animal and damage to the gate. Hinge pins are provided along one vertical member for hanging the gate in the entry way of a stall.
