I just really want to remind everyone that if you're going to do the gross necropsy you should really go all the way and do the histo as well. There are things they can learn from the histo, one being ruling out PDD. PDD does not necessarily show up on a gross necropsy and can only be ruled out for certain by also doing the histopathology. A good friend of mine who lost her grey to PDD said that the gross necropsy showed absolutely nothing that would have ever made the doctors think of PDD. They only found it on histo. This is so important for all of us to understand.Yes this was gross only. If the vets saw anything to send off they were going to. There were 2 avian specialists and 1 vet neurologist right there when they did the necropsy the night after she died. The vet called us in the morning. We were unbelievably lucky to have an amazing avian crew so close to home.
