She is going to refrigerate it so don't worry...

NO, don't freeze!!! It does mess up the necropsy, and especially if more than gross pathology is needed. Just chill, in fact dipping the bird in cold water will chill him faster, so preserving tissues better. Then wrap in plastic and refrigerate.

Thanks! I’ll try that. Good idea about chilling him. I’ll get cold water ready.

I still haven’t heard back from the lab yet so I think I’m just going to go get a broom and do it right now and then just refrigerate him.

I've just seen, over and over, so many times whenever anyone here advises sending a bird out for a necropsy, they always stress that, "refrigerate, don't freeze."

Yeah I’m going to refrigerate hahah thanks though

I usually try to keep all responses here smart alecky and jokey, but today my daughter is in the hospital. She has 4 children, ages 2 and up, 1 step son, and a foster son. That's 6 kids total depending on her. They think the illness has caused her to have a stroke as well. She's only 40. Not being able to go to the hospital, to see her, hold her hand is torture! I want my baby to be alright!

You can freeze them and then thaw them out in the fridge especially if you have to keep them in the fridge for a bit longer if they can't be shipped right off.

No freezing, fridge only.
