Don't listen to her...her time frame is whacked. It wasn't long.Its hard to tell. He also could have started to bloat if it took you a while to process him. From cone to naked to empty belly for me is less than 10 minutes. Also, if he wasn't fasted first the intestines would be bigger.

Treats. All treats.So, what makes a chicken fatty? Too much food? I know stupid? But I have heard to let them eat as much as they want, is this bad to do?

Thank you@KDOGG331, sorry for your loss.great job on the necropsy.
