We lost Molly Bird today

For those who read the cockatoo forum and know about our little Molly Bird. I'm sorry to say that she passed on today. She was our rescue who was abused and I bought her for my husband, she was thin and plucked on her breast. She adored him but hated me. She was looking so good, even getting new feathers on her chest.

My husband happened to check in her cage to see what she was up to and found her dead. He's very shaken over it. Right now she's in our fridge in newspaper, as he wants to have a necropsy done.

Her beak looked like it had vomit on it, so we think she aspirated before she passed on.

I'm wondering if there was something wrong that we were not aware of. For the last few weeks she did not want to get wet feathers. My husband takes them into the shower with him and let's them shower. Normally she loves to go in with him and as I said lately she refused to go.
