Fred Meyer is recalling about 1,000 Easter Chicks that play music and dance when you squeeze the left wing.
It turns out that the music the chicken plays is above the ASTM F963 standard for decibel levels and this can cause hearing damage.
People are instructed to stop using the toy immediately and take it back for a full refund. The toy cost about $20 and was sold at Fred Meyer stores in February and March.
For more information, the CPSC report on the recall is listed here.
A recall on an Easter item late May is a couple months past Easter. I am surprised it took this long to find the problem.
