Instructions on how to post a photo. First, you need to load your photos onto a website. The most common site people use is PhotoBucket but there are plenty of other free sites around.
Once you've registered and uploaded your photos, if you're using Photo Bucket, find the picture you want to post. Under the photos are 3 boxes with addresses in them. Copy the address in the bottom box (IMG) and come back here and open a new (or existing) message and copy that address into the main window where you type your message. This 'code' is the same one you'd find in the EBCode legend at the bottom of the page. To add more than one photo, repeat the above steps. Only put one address per line.
Remember, if you are buying or selling stock, add your location and email address to your message so people know where you are!

It could have been any number of other things, as there weren't many obvious symptoms. It sounds like a fairly acute problem, as the chick obviously had a full crop, and was therefore eating well when it was struck with something (illness or poison). Have a look at the crop contents and see if there was something in there that wasn't supposed to be. Look for bruising or bite marks on the skin, which might appear almost greenish or "teal" coloured on the surface of the skin. You say the droppings were normal and the white discharge may have just been normal urea passing through without fecal matter in it because nothing much was moving through the digestive system.
Without more symptoms, it is so hard to tell. Let us know what you find out with the autopsy.
