crystal stones

[durayed]

, hi , my african grey parrot , passed away yesterday , his condition started about one week ago , in the first day of his disease  he became lethargic with cold feet , diarrohe with dark greenish stool and also i think polyuria,and in the second day he ate less and less untill he stopped eating just one day befory he died , all other systems was good the respirotry system , cns , no feather problems, after he died i just wanted to know the cause of his death , so dissected him , the only thing i found that his gizzard was full and distended , so i open it and found a crystal like stones and greenish in color , i thought it a gall bladder with stones , but after reasearch i found parrots dont have gall bladder , please can any one help me what was his disease???

I'm very sorry that you lost your bird. Were you able to take him to the vet before he passed for an examination? I think only vets could determine the cause and perform the proper procedures to investigate after his death. I'm not sure we will be able to help you here...?

thanks neoow, here in my country we dont have an expert specilized vets, and very few numbers of vets,but am a medical doctor , and my  suspicion ,of his death  is either a viral infection by a borno virus or blocage of his lower venriculus orifice by a foriegn bodey , which cause this crytal transparent stones accumulation , ,, and by the way i was feeding him dried boiled egg shells,  ay be its the cause , dont know really!!

I'm so sorry you lost your grey and as no one here is a vet we are clueless as to why it happened.
