Fowlpox or Mycoplasma?

[servant_of_fluffs]

I have a five year old Orpington hen with watery eyes and loud darth Vadery breathing. She is also shaped very differently than her sisters. She is from a hatchery so maybe they mixed her with a broiler?!

This is one of her sisters.

This is another hen of mine who has kind of puffy and not all the way open eyelids.

Here’s another hen who’s comb and face looks very bumpy and dark.

This is my rooster. He has little scabs on his comb and his face looks a little puffy. (He lost the top of his comb to frostbite this winter.)

I have a five year old Orpington hen with watery eyes and loud darth Vadery breathing.

Are there any lesions inside the beak?
What's her crop like?
When was her last egg?
I don't see any Pox lesions on the combs or wattles. She does have some droopy eyes. Re-check the crop first thing in the morning before she's had anything to eat or drink. Feel of her abdomen below the vent between her legs for any indication of bloat or fluid.

Possible she may have respiratory disease (Mycoplasma) but it would be a good idea to rule out canker, crop or reproductive problems which can also cause some raspy breathing.

This is my rooster. He has little scabs on his comb and his face looks a little puffy.

His scabs look like pick marks or injury from fencing. Any lesions inside his beak?

Here’s another hen who’s comb and face looks very bumpy and dark.

This hen has a rose comb with a hint of mulberry coloring on the face and comb. The comb should be bumpy.

Are they all eating/drinking o.k.?

Have you added any new birds recently?
