Lab Results Back- This is what killed my peacock. "Aflatoxin" - a common type of Mycotoxin. Basically a deadly and even carcinogenic mold/fungus that contaminates corn and peanuts(most often) but other grains as well. The contamination can happen before harvest,or sometimes after- in poor storage situations- hot, humid summer weather and relaxed husbandry...ie,cleaning and disposal of old feed. Hope every one reads this- since its a real wake up call. This fungal toxin can be completely invisible- in other words the grain does not even have to look moldy- to be deadly. There are many articles about aflatoxin- but there is one from Cornell University I found interesting (and alarming).
Knowing this was there anything that could be done.
