This is my first time doing a Necropsy and I definitely learned a lot. But, now I am stumped on a few things and after researching for HOURS, I have decided to go ahead and post photos here. Can anyone give me some insight on a few of these. THANK YOU!
Breed: White American Bresse
Age: 2 Months
Sex: Male
Detail of Symptoms:
Day 1: The first sign of any problems was the sudden lose of control in the legs. He would hobble around and just lay down on his hocks. Still eating/drinking by himself. My original thought was an injury or vitamin deficiency, so I started feeding scrambled eggs, vitamin supplements, pumpkin seeds, garlic, etc..
Day 2: No improvement but kept up with feeding lots of vitamins, electrolytes, etc..
Day 3: No longer able to eat/drink so I started feeding/watering via syringe and decided to deworm and try a higher quality vitamin.
Day 4: No improvement. He started open mouthing breathing after eating/drinking which then turned into open mouth breathing no matter what.
Day 5: Open mouth breathing with a swallowing motion after each breath. Finally euthanized by breaking the neck.
He was having no problems pooping but as time went on they got really stinky, really dark green and really thick....like toothpaste or tar. I credited the smell from all the vitamins since they smelled bad before hand.
Are lungs supposed to be foamy like this??
