Favus

[Rystall]

I think I have a hen with Favus, now I have ringworm on my hand. Is it from my chickens? I have checked other pets but none of them have it. What can I do for my chickens? I am already being treated but I don't want it to spread to my other chickens.

I finally got some pictures. Please let me know if I am right thinking Favus or if it is something different and what I can do for them.

It looks more like feather loss from a rooster mounting. The roo is inclined to grab at feathers in the head area and the saddle area looks like classic over mounting. There are even hen saddles on the market to prevent this.
