Every state lab system is different, a few offer services at a nominal cost or sometimes free, others can be quite expensive. Look up your lab, they should have a website with prices.I have heard about necropsies somewhat around these forums, but never knew where to take them.
Thanks for the link. It seems the nearest one is an hour and a half away from here, though. How much does a necropsy usually cost?
We took a look at the chicken, but nothing too in depth. It was kind of hard to with all the ants on her.
I'll keep the link handy, though.
