Iām so sorry! Birds donāt actually die from stress unless they have a preexisting condition or severe illness, he must have had a heart defect, poor guy!I found him passed away in the coop this morning I'm guessing he died from shock/stress. I know everyone automatically thinks avian flu with stuff like this but he didn't display any avian flu symptoms and I havent had any unexplained sudden deaths. We havent had any cases in my state either thank goodness. Poor guy.... Fly high buddy, I hope you get to scream at hawks to your hearts content!!
Thereās nothing you could have done, something like this would have happened eventually,
The important part is you gave him a good home and good memories for his time here on earth.
Rest well sweet gander and may the universe be full of wonders for you.
