When today is "farmer day" at your DD's school for homecoming and you kick yourself because you didn't think of sending a chicken with her to school.

There are 'bird leashes'? ill have to look for one of those
You can buy chicken saddles that have a ring to snap a leash to. Cute, & also probably less expensive than a "bird leash."
I'd suggest a chicken saddle that's the kind that has straps that cross across the breast in an "X". The ones that have straps that just go around the wings can chafe too much.
In a pinch at home, I've tied a piece of yarn with a square knot (so it wouldn't tighten too much) onto one leg of a chicken & held the other end. It takes a minute or two for the chicken to get used to having the string, but usually the chicken is quickly "taking it in stride" and you can let the chicken have some time semi-free-ranging about the yard.
