Huh. Spleen is a little pale but otherwise normal. I expected it to look like the liver. Everything else looks pretty good, heart, lungs, gall bladder, etc.

 

[Mountain Roost]

so is that lymphoid leukosis?

Good news is that it looks like no picture of Spotty Liver Disease that I've seen - lesions are smaller, more regular in shape, more tightly clustered in the sample photos.

What have you been feeding this bird?? I'm guessing its dietary at this point.

@azygous

Look at that funky liver...

Is that a fatty infiltration of liver? Cornish X

 

[U_Stormcrow]

Oh, Lymphoid Leukosis. Yeah, that makes sense.

First, I'm sorry you lost Smudge.

Second, thank you for documenting this.

Following to try to learn.

Fat, hemmorhage, swelling, and probably necrosis.

Thank you for showing all this!! How educational! Could someone take a snapshot and label all those parts?
