    Professional Necropsy - what does this mean?

    She's right. Her infection was caused by egg yolk in her system. This led to a severe case of sepsis which is what killed her.

    Is it possible to remove reproductive organs (safely)?

    I have the same issue. Mine has infections, so I'm taking her to be spayed. I'll be going to UC Davis in California since I'm about 1.5 hours from it.

    Wood Duck Duckling With Wry Neck - Help!

    In that case, I'd get crickets from the pet store and roll them around in the vitamin e and selenium. Use a zip lock baggie so you can roll them around. Best of luck!!

    Wood Duck Duckling With Wry Neck - Help!

    I had a chick with wry neck. This is what I did and it worked after about 5 months of steady feeding. I got vitamin e tablets and selenium. I used scrambled eggs because she loved them.

    HELP!! Russian Orloff hen lethargic and wont keep eyes open

    Hello, I came across your post late. How is your girl? She could have been harboring an infection from the lash egg. This can cause a staph infection and cause death. She should be seen by a vet.

    Hello, I recieved the final report dor my girl. She had leukemia. From what I can understand, it had invaded her entire system. She had always been a calm girl. So I didn't notice her becoming more calm. But I look back and I can now see she had been sick for a while. So the illness was not...

    Name that illness

    Hello!!! She actually spent a good amount of time outside in the front garden area. She was like a dog, in and out. She sunned on the deck, dust bathed in her corner and shredded my plants to her hearts content. I loved her. I took her to Davis to have a necropsy done. I have a preliminary...
