In a Backyard Poultry magazine picture(Oct-Nov-07), I noted a young child (4-6), "walking" her pet chicken with a leash...'strolling to the park.' Hen seemed to be a red-star.

Have never had a 4Her or seen anyone doing this in all my years around chickens. Can anyone 'smarten' me? Have seen some sort of leg leash for game chickens....is that what is used? Cautions?

Think it might work for a GD for bantams or easter eggers?
