Chicken focus for RVC public event
Visitors will be able to take part in activities and learning with a focus on chickens.
RVC is opening its doors to the general public for its annual "Night at the Vet College" event - with the focus this year on chickens.
People will be able to go behind the scenes at the college for an evening of activities and hands-on science.
The theme will centre on a key part of our economy and food chain - chickens. This will include discussions on how to keep them healthy and how they are evolving.
Visitors will be able to learn more about RVC scientists' investigations into chicken welfare and cognition and Professor John Hutchinson will discuss the links between dinosaurs and modern chickens.
In addition, the college's anatomist Andrew Crook will give a demonstration of bird anatomy.
Chickens are also available to meet and greet in the RVC farm and visitors can take a tour of the RVC's resident artist's studios.
Meanwhile, treasure hunt and art activities will be going on and a pub quiz will end the evening.
The free event takes place on Friday, April 25 from 5pm to 10pm at the RVC's Camden campus on Royal College Street.
Spaces are limited so visitors must register on the RVC website to ensure a place.
FIVP has shared a survey, inviting those working in independent practice to share their views on the CMA's proposed remedies.
