Anyones Child In A 4H Club Or Similar

My DD wants to goto a camp at 4H club. I figure all the feed has some type of gluten in it and maybe a bit of it floating in the air when you dig into the bag or containers.

I figured wearing gloves would work to cover her hands with explicit hand washing instructions but what about the air safety?

I wouldn't consider this but , she wants a rabbit and we are sending her because she will mostly be taking care of bunnies for the week and learning how to care for them, feed them, clip nails etc...

It's a SMALL barn with about 25 rabbits and a few outside calfs,goats, ducks and chickens. We have chickens so she knows she has to wash after feeding but she only throws 1 scoop of feed out for them, I honestly don't know how much she would be handling there it could be more like a qallon of food over different animal pens.

Anyways, are there any celiac kids in a 4H or have a farm with this type of experience ?

Please let me know

Thanks.

I had a rabbit but never fed him wheat. I don't think they are supposed to eat that. Check out what they feed them. Maybe it isn't so bad? I would be more worried about what they are feeding her (if its the sleepover type camp).

Maybe other folks' experience will help you some but there's just no way to tell about your specific camp without talking to the folks who run it. 4-H camps aren't all the same.

Personally, I would not be worried in the least about what's in the air.

Just looked up a brand of bunny food & it does have wheat in it. Its pellets so it won't be flying around in the air.

      Lymph nodes

      By Smith-Ronald · Posted

      Enlarged lymph nodes in neck and groin with celiac are not uncommon. They can take time to reduce even after going gluten-free. Monitoring is key.

      Trying to read my lab results

      By Bayb · Posted

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep searching for a cause?

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      Why?

      By trents · Posted

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific?
