When I bought them my two little babies are listed as Rhode Island reds and they look the same but one has brighter feet than the other one....

Ok I'll do a search thanks for the info. At five weeks I should be able to tell if my chicks are hens or roosters right?

What are some options as to what it could've been? Those year old chickens were the first ones I've ever had so I don't know too much

No she did not have pox

This is what she looked like

Ok really? Well I hade a Rhode Island Red that was about a year old vey active and a troublemaker. I came home from work one day and found her just laying there dead like she just fell forward. Why is that?

So I shouldn't vaccinate my month old chicks for this? And no it wasn't quite that bad. It was big scabs like that but just in the crease. I was told it takes about a month to go away but it's only been a week....is that possible since they are falling off already?

Is it normal for the fowl pox scabs to start falling off already? They are almost all gone. It's inly been about a week and she had it real bad and a lot of it....

I let then free range whenever I'm home too. I just don't want my others or babies getting this. Should I get the vaccine for fowl pox for my two little chicks that are about a month old?

Thanks for explaining that. How often should I put iodine on if I do?

What is blue kote? Ok I will definitely look at the links.

Here's a closer picture. Does this help? Does it show it is fowl pox? It's not contagious right?

Ok I will do that and get rid of all of the other standing water. I'll show you a better picture when I get home later

Is there a way to prevent the chickens from getting fowl pox?

So there is nothing I can do if it is fowl pox? I'll get another picture under the fold. Can this fowl pox kill my hen?

Here is a better picture. What is it?

It doesn't look too much like that. It looks almost like a scab. I'll try to get a better picture. She doesn't sit still long enough for me to take a good picture of it. Is there anything I can do to take care of this and make it go away?

They are in that crease where it's all dark
