Webinar: Urban Hen Management and Medicine
Abstract: Urban hen keeping is increasing in popularity as more municipalities allow hens. Keeping a small number of hens well in a Alberta’s climate can be challenging and hen keepers are encouraged to form relationships with a veterinarian to assist with management, parasite control and health problems.
If you are a small animal veterinarian or RVT with limited exposure to hens, this introduction to urban hen management, breed selection & their most common health conditions will give you the confidence to expand your practice to include them!

Biography: Dr. Margaret Fisher is an Edmonton-based veterinarian with a varied background in poultry. Mixed animal practice, 10 + years with CFIA in both the district office and as a disease control specialist and 14 years working with Edmonton administration to create a hen program has given her a broad perspective on urban hens.
