I think its cool that you did get to have the Xray for 4-H. I have to ask how your children used it. Did they use it for part of a presentation for a meeting or competition?

Wow, those pictures look awesome. The egg does look pretty big don't ya think? How many batches have you had with your chicken with the oversized egg? Ha ha!

I just can't believe what was going through that chickens mind!!

I don't know exactly how they did it, because they wouldn't let me go back with her. I know the vet technician held her, though, but I didn't get to see any of it. I just had to sit in the waiting room until it was over. The technician must have been wearing special gloves(??)

That's unfortunate. It is much better to have the owner hold the chicken because the chicken owner gets the dose maybe once. The vet tech could be holding animals all day long and accumulate a lot of dose. Same goes for kids. The parents should do the holding. You can probably tell I have a background in radiation protection.
