Fowl pox?

[Nerdc0reRizing]

Hi,

Almost all of my 12 chickens have a tiny black dot or a few on their combs. They tiff a lot so I figured it was pecking injuries.
However, now I'm starting to be concerned it could be the start of fowl pox.
This is a picture of the worst looking comb

That looks like pecking injuries. Here is some info with pictures of fowl pox:

Hey,
Yeah, that's what I thought too and the more BYC posts I read the more nervous I got as people were saying it can start that way.
There's also my top pecking order chicken with this yellow crust.
Idk I'm getting paranoid lol

that looks like a piece of cracked corn stuck there . Will it flick off ?

Haha! I definitely second guessed myself and ran out to try and wipe it off again but no it doesn't come off.
