Fowl pox...?

Hi friends! I'm pretty sure this is fowl pox, but wanted to get a second opinion. My girl Aubrey has had these for a couple weeks. Behavior is totally normal; weight, crop and appetite are healthy.

My other 3 hens all have noticeably new pecking marks on their combs, but no signs of anything remotely similar to Aubrey's scabs. They're little dots of obvious dried blood. She's the top of the pecking order, but the three younger girls are finally getting big enough to push back from time to time.

I mention this because I'm not ruling out the possibility of these two gnarly scabs being injuries, especially with the coincidental uptick in the other hens' comb scabs, but... they sure look like pox to me. Especially that one by her eye. I would think that two weeks would see pox into the darker stage of the scab, but maybe not. What do y'all think?

No, I don't think it's Fowl Pox.

The place on her beak looks like it may be a Papilloma and the one above the eye looks similar.
Could be from injury.
I think I'd watch the places and see what happens.

Let's tag in @Eggcessive and see if she has any other thoughts/suggestions.

I agree, they may be injuries or pecks. I would swab some povidone iodine (Betadine) or Walmart Equate First Aid Wound Solution on those twice a day. That should dry them up. If they seem full of pus, the one on the eye lid may need to be opened.

Have I ever told y'all how much I love this community? Thank you so much. I will definitely take care of these!
