Successful Management of Egg-Bound Condition in Parrot (Psittaciformes): A Case Report

A two-year-old parrot, weighing 130 grams, was brought to Vet Care Clinic in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, with symptoms including anorexia, decreased activity, inability to lay eggs for the past three days, and swelling in the caudal abdomen. Based on the history, clinical signs, and physical examination findings, the parrot was tentatively diagnosed with an egg-bound condition. Conservative treatment was chosen, and the egg was manually removed after applying lubrication with lignocaine gel and liquid paraffin. The procedure was successful, and the bird recovered without any reported complications.
