Product Information

These water loving waddlers make fascinating pets, so dive deep and discover the wet and wonderful world of duck keeping.

Hens that are a bit smaller or larger than the given sizes were easily able to slip out of the harness, not something you want as you are crossing the street. Adjustable and Easy to Wear: Adjust the size to your needs to make sure your chickens are comfortable. Certainly, you will be the talk of the neighborhood and you will probably be surprised at the number of people that will approach and talk with you about your ‘unusual’ pet. Prevention of further contamination by either removing the chickens from the contaminated soil or soil remediation is necessary.Therapy chickens will often go to nursing homes or assisted living facilities to add some amusement and enjoyment. It is not only detrimental to the bird's health, but also to the humans who consume the eggs laid by the hens. Over time, garden clubs and other groups have done a good job of publicizing the dangers of lead for backyard vegetable gardeners, leading to widespread awareness about the importance of soil testing and mitigation efforts such as building raised planting beds filled with fresh soil. There’s nothing like the fresh eggs from your own hens, the more than 400,000 Australians who keep backyard chooks will tell you. Failure to respond to treatment may also be related to the continued exposure to contaminated soil during and after the treatment period and other contributing illnesses present aside from lead exposure.

Isolate the bird from the flock and place in a safe, comfortable, warm location (your own chicken "intensive care unit") with easy access to water and food. The chicken will peck at it and tears the strap into strings and then the strings get caught in her beak or she swallows them. Inspect the clean cover material regularly, and add or maintain material as needed to help keep chickens from coming in contact with underlying soil that may have higher concentrations of lead. Anyone who has tried to medicate a hen knows they have a neck that can pull their head down into the chest – much like a turtle.

That’s around the level found in Australian children not living in areas affected by lead mines or smelters. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. Despite elevated levels of environmental lead contamination in many US cities, the role of backyard chicken eggs as a pathway for lead exposure, particularly for children, has received limited scrutiny. Radiographic identification of a metallic foreign body with clinical signs of lead toxicosis is suggestive of lead poisoning.
