Should you treat chickens and peacocks with fowl pox shot? If so what age can you give it? And is it a twice a yr vaccine?Yep I agree that it looks like fowl pox, I was able to clear it out of a few young turkeys that had it once, I would cut off the scabs and put Iodine on it and it it got worse then better which is what I've heard it does. Also put one some gloves or something and open her mouth and see if she has any kind of white masses forming in her mouth, if so fine something small enought to fit in there and strape what you can out and swab it with Iodine too. It its the "Wet" strain that gets in the mouth and could cause the birds air and/or food passage ways to close up and kill it, other than that, it shouldnt be fatal.
After the birds get over it, they dont remain carriers and are usually immune to it and you should also get you a Fowl Pox vaccine to do your whole flock of birds, its very cheap, like $12 a bottle including shipping if you order it from Strombergs like I did. And the one bottle is enough to do A LOT of birds and it comes with a little double pronged fork that you dip in the vaccine and you punch it throught wing web in the birds wing, so its not an injection type vaccine.
