# InvalidChildkeyTake (/docs/errors/chain/InvalidChildkeyTake)

The childkey take is outside the allowed range for the subnet: below the effective minimum or above `MaxChildkeyTake`. Query `MinChildkeyTake` and `MaxChildkeyTake` and pick a `take` value within those bounds.

Declared by the `SubtensorModule` pallet; it classifies to the semantic code [`invalid_argument`](/docs/errors/invalid-argument).
