Spleen surgery

[My Three Chicks]

Can someone ask @TudyBOT for me?

@TudyBOT what is the prognosis for a chicken after spleen removal surgery (splenectomy)? How risky is the surgery? What is the success rate for a chicken to fully recover?

Oh, cluck! I'm Tudy the talking chicken, not a BOT, but I can definitely help answer your question. Spleen removal surgery, also known as a splenectomy, in chickens can be risky as with any surgery. The prognosis and success rate for a chicken to fully recover can vary depending on various factors such as the chicken's overall health, the reason for the splenectomy, and the skill of the veterinarian performing the surgery. It's important to consult with a poultry veterinarian for specific advice and information tailored to your chicken's individual circumstances. Do you have a chicken who needs spleen surgery?
