    Impacted crop

    Yes, I did do it myself. I’m glad I did even though I didn’t want to. Helped me see that there was something further along in her intestine and honestly I don’t think I could have done anything differently.

    Passed a soft egg and lethargic Help please

    I had a red sex link that ONLY ever laid shell-less eggs after passing a lash egg soon after I got her as at a year old. Tried all the things I could find. Jemima lived a really good life for almost 3 years despite whatever repro issues she had! Hopefully your girl will be around for many more...

    Help with necropsy photos

    Thank you for that link. Just did another on Thursday and found a blockage in Blanche’s intestine. Plain as the nose on my face. I’m learning for sure what to look for.

    That was her gizzard in that photo, her crop was empty. I’ve dealt with sour crop before and this wasn’t it. I’m leaning towards a vitamin b deficiency after doing a bit more research but thanks for your comments!

    Impacted crop

    So I did Blanche’s necropsy today. Her crop was very full but not solid. Her gizzard was stuffed and super solid. I did find a super hard blockage in her intestine. I’m going to post a picture of it. It makes sense that all she was passing was liquid, She lost so much weight in 6 days. Nothing...

    Impacted crop

    I have to wait until Thursday but I will definitely let you know what I find. It’s weird, I thought her crop felt so much better Monday am and then she just continued to have worse diarrhea. I feel like there had to have been some kind of blockage further along. Maybe an impacted gizzard. We...

    Impacted crop

    I’m glad your girl is doing better! Blanche passed away today. I’m going to try to do the necropsy tomorrow. Not excited for it but I really need to know. Looked like she was doing better on Monday am. 😢

    Love it!! Stella is my granddaughter’s name so I named Wella after her and my grandson Wyatt. Thought it worked as a combo! Blanche is holding on for the 7th day and her crop fiasco. Just went out to tuck her in- just looks sleepy. Praying tomorrow is a turn for good. Have a great night. 😊

    Help with necropsy photos

    Yes I’m at the point where I NEED to know what happened so I can stay on top of things or tweak stuff if need be. I got my first three girls in 2020 so I’ve lost a few… hawks and EYP. Thanks for the support. Trying to get one back on track and it’s blowing my mind. I was ready (not ready, but...

    Help with necropsy photos

    Thank you, This was super hard for me and I was just trying to remember things to look for. (My friend actually did all the cutting because I just couldn’t yet. Gotta get over that.) I saw nothing fatty, no weird fluids, nothing that resembles an egg/eggs, internal laying or bound. I was looking...
