**Autopsy Pictures**

I had a 7 month old ameraucana pullet, she had laid 1 egg 3 weeks ago and that was it. Perfectly fine then 2 days ago became very lethargic and not wanting to eat, quarantined her. No other symptoms. She passed last night. I opened her up first thing I find is a huge ball of looks like fat (pullet was under weight though so I have no idea why). I open the ball and inside are the intestines almost looks like the fat squeezed the intestines together. Her ovaries were empty and all other organs I could see were fine, even liver nice red healthy. Any ideas what happened to her?
