Lead based paint in coop?

[Angiebubs]

We are converting an older horse barn into a coop. and there is paint flakes. Ive been washing it down but Im wondering if it may be lead based paint? And if so-this would be toxic right?

Yes very toxic, possibly fatal. There is lots of info if you google/search.

Good luck,
