If we do so a member of our customer services team will contact you and will refund in full any charges which have been incurred.

Goods are invoiced in pounds (£) sterling or Euros (€) at the price prevailing at the time you place your order. Prices are expressed exclusive of Value Added Tax ("VAT") which will be charged at the current rate as shown on the on-line order form and are exclusive of delivery charges. Delivery charges will be added to the price of the goods purchased so that the on-line order form shows the total charges which we will debit.
The prices indicated apply only to on-line purchases and are not indicative of the price of identical goods purchased at our retail stores or by any other means.
We reserve the right to amend any prices without any prior notice and to end any promotions at any time. We reserve the right to add or withdraw any item at any time.

VAT is applicable to all UK orders and will be included in the final cost. VAT will be charged at the prevailing UK rate.

The Chicken Vet will not be liable to any customer for any delays or failure to perform due to any causes beyond our reasonable control.

Jurisdiction and Law
Contracts under these terms and conditions are governed by and shall be construed in accordance with English law and English Courts having jurisdiction subject to any contrary rights the Customer may have as a consumer.
Delivery Services and Returns
Delivery is deemed to take place when the goods are delivered to your nominated delivery address, whereupon the risk of loss, breakage and damage passes to you. Ownership of the goods does not pass to you until payment is received in full by us.
Some postal addresses in Northern Ireland, some offshore islands and some remote areas of Great Britain may not be covered by our delivery services and we may not be able to arrange delivery of some items to such addresses. You will be notified of this when you place your order. Deliveries to Northern Ireland may need to wait an extra day to receive their order.
Whilst we make every effort to deliver goods on the day we specify, we cannot guarantee delivery on that day or accept liability for deliveries made outside this timescale. The standard service is delivery within 48 hours of dispatching the order.
Due to current regulations on animal health products, we are unable to offer a return on any products bought from The Chicken Vet, unless the product has been damaged in transit or faulty.
Unfortunately, as a licensed supplier of veterinary medicines, governed by The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) and Veterinary Medicine Directorate (VMD), we are unable to offer a refund for medications as these goods cannot be offered for resale. This regulatory law exists to ensure the safety of your chickens, as the returned medicines may have been subject to improper storage conditions or tampered with. However, we are happy to dispose of medication safely for you.
We are committed to providing our customers with the highest quality products. All goods are warranted to be generally free from defects in workmanship and materials and fit for the purposes for which such goods would normally be used. However, on rare occasions products may be found to be faulty or defective and in keeping with our commitment to providing customers with excellent service, we offer the returns facility set out below.
All returns are the responsibility of the customer. We will only cover the cost of faulty or damaged returned goods.
If an item is faulty please contact us and we will arrange an appropriate remedy. This facility is open during normal office hours Monday to Friday only. Instructions for customers wishing to return goods will appear on each Advice Note. Any customer seeking a refund for postage and packing or not wishing to pay for the return of faulty or damaged goods will need to contact us directly. Carriage costs will be displayed at the checkout prior to paying for the goods. A decision on whether the product needs to be replaced or credited is entirely at our discretion.
If after inspection your product is deemed to be faulty we will endeavour to organise a replacement or refund the purchase amount within 14 days of the return.
We regret that failure to return products within 28 days of delivery may result in us being unable to process your claim.
You may cancel your order (or any part of it) at any point before the products are despatched to you. You may do so by notifying us by email or calling.
Credit Card Payments
We are unable to accept credit [or debit] cards that are due to expire within the next FIVE days. Card details are checked and verified by a third party and goods are despatched once authorisation has been obtained by us.
Liability

loss of business, loss of revenue, loss of profits, loss of anticipated savings, wasted expenditure, loss of privacy and/or loss of data; and/or
any other loss or damage which does not result directly from our actions of, or the actions of sub-contractors or agents;
and which arises out of or is related to your purchase of goods via the Website.
