Wow Kathy, she was really skinny! I am surprised at how sick they can be and still look like they are fine, doing chicken things and all, right up to when they pass on. She was eating right up to also...thanks again. Truly a great learning experience!!!
Did you worm your bird recently? I read on BYC that can cause a blockage, although they were talking in the intestines, but was wondering, if it was gapeworm, that are attached to the trachea, if they could mass in the crop? Just random thinking about this, no clue if it's even possible...
I get that Kathy...seems, after fighting a disease/parasite, and putting all you have into it, then to have an end...yeah, I think I would feel the same!
Great on the pic's. I'm sure we can all learn tons from this, thank you for doing this Kathy!
Good luck!
Oh dear casportpony, you sure are dealing with this whole mess well. I don't think I have diagnostic skills, so wouldn't have a clue what to suggest or ask, but kudos to you for trying your own necropsy! Will be interesting to know what you find out though!
My only guess would be impacted...
