Thank you all so much, i will be preforming it tomorrow. I really do appreciate the advice and tips you all have given me, it means a lot as i quite literally know nothing about doing it.
I’m not interested in sending her to the lab because i know what it will say “Mareks, nematodes, lesions/tumors.” I was intrested in doing it because i plan on being a Avian vet, i want to get over my weak stomach, i want to learn more and the best way to learn the anatomy is to see the anatomy...
I also want to add something might have been going on with her respiratory system? The little bit of skin behind her nares would go in and out in each breathe and you could often hear her breathe, she had staining around her nares that was blackish and i had to clean.
I may not pursue necropsy...
My hen died from what I believe to be Mareks disease and roundworms.
Well, we sent another hen off to Uconn and it came back with those things. She started to flop over and we decided putting her down would be best. I have questions.
I have never done a necropsy before, i don’t know what i’m...
