Dear Dr Nipane and Dr Kumare Great article. I think a major cause could be Toxicity in the birds. It could occur due to uncontrolled toxicity ion layer ration specially through grains. You may study in this line also and update your findings. Once again thank you very much.

During thirty years of my career in commercial poultry in Pakistan, egg bound is often a cause of death in normal flocks. This problem is very difficult to diagnose in large flocks, where you cannot observe individual birds. Most of the time, we learn that cause of the death is due to egg bound when we perform postmortem. If we would be able to locate and diagnose a bird with egg bound then treatment is only physical manipulation or surgical. To surgically correct the egg bound is impossible as cost of the procedure surpass value of bird. So the only option is to waste the bird so that bird must not suffer any more. This article has a good academic value, however, I think, its practical value for commercial poultry is not much but for scientist or geneticist dealing with development of GP or GGP flocks, this article has some practical value.

Quite brief and informative. Is there a specific region within the reproductive tract of the hen where egg binding commonly occurs and what are anatomical predisposing factor(s)?
