So, it's more likely than not that he died due to an intestinal issue, right?

Or a heart attack because of the increased stress on his system because of the intestinal issue.

I am actually eating and looking at these pics at the same time.
It's bothering me one bit.

Lol....me too.

Ok, here's my two cents. I think he might have had a gut issue.

All of the birds I've processed looked like the instructional photo on the inside. the guts are either tan or redish tan. Thanks for posting that pic Kiki!

Your guy had this nasty looking loop of intestine (circled in red), which looks necrotic to me. You can clearly see normal looking intestine coming off of the necrotic area (circled in blue).

This is a picture of human intestines that are necrotic. You can see your bird's intestinte has the same greenish brown color to the necrotic area in the picture below.

With what other people have been saying about his heart looking odd, I think he probably started developing a gut issue - that would have killed him eventually - but it put a strain on his heart, giving him a heart attack.

Good eye!!! I would've never noticed that. Nothing like looking at guts while snacking before a yoga session...
