Analysis of the etiology of salpingitis in chicken

  1. The sanitary condition of the poultry house is too poor, and the cloaca is contaminated by bacteria and invades the fallopian tube, such as Salmonella pullorum, paratyphoid bacillus, Escherichia coli, etc.
  2. Feeding too much animal feed, laying too large or double yolk eggs, sometimes the egg shell breaks in the fallopian tube, damaging the fallopian tube;
  3. Stress factors: laying hens are very sensitive to changes in the environment. If the hens encounter catching, immunization, refueling, water cut-off and strangers enter the hen house when laying eggs, abnormal sound, color, etc. can cause panic and stress in the chickens. Laying hens are also a strong stress to laying hens at the beginning and peak of laying.
  4. Various avian diseases: such as mild avian influenza, mild Newcastle disease, infectious bronchitis, avian leukaemia, and egg drop syndrome
  5. Excessive laying of eggs and lack of vitamin A, D and E in feed can lead to salpingitis.
