    I have an 8.5 y/o leghorn and two 3 y/o sexlinks. They recently have had an outbreak of lice, I treated the coop with permethrin and DE and it seems to be much better.

    Fowl Pox or Favus?

    One of my chickens started looking poorly on Monday (April 8). Tail down and lethargic. We've had very healthy chickens and no problems for a few years now, so it was definitely a surprise when this one started acting sick. I know chickens are great at hiding illness, so when we notice...

    Is this fowl pox

    Was thinking this is fowl pox. It has been several months since this showed up and is not improving and may actually be a getting worse. The roosters by far are the worse. Very little symptoms on the hens...just a dot here and there. What could this be other than fowl pox? Its not frost bite. We...

    What is this? Don’t think it’s pox...

    I have one hen that has an odd ‘growth’ on her face. It’s been there since last fall but is slowly increasing in size. It looks like some of the pics I’ve seen of fowl pox, but it’s only 1 lesion and has had such slow growth that I don’t think that it could be. No other symptoms and the lesion...

    Help! Does she have Fowl Pox?

    Yesterday I noticed a white spot on the base of my hen’s comb. I’ve noticed a few other darkish scabs which could just be scratches. If anyone could give me some advice on if it is or isn’t Fowl Pox and how to cure it, that would be amazing. I put some pictures down below. Please help!
