I'm a so very sorry. I can't tell you for sure based on the photos but since it was around feeding time, choking is a possibility. Other possibilities: * Atadenovirus * Heart disease * Kidney or liver disease Please don't think it was anything you did wrong. Animals (especially birds and reptiles) are very good at hiding illness until it is often too late. Again, so sorry this happened. If you want an exact diagnosis you would have to have a vet in your area do a necropsy (autopsy) on him.
