French frogs

[WVduckchick]

My birds had the dry pox about a year and a half ago. Small blisters then dark spots on combs and wattles. Could tell the birds were a bit sick, but nothing serious. I didn't do any treatment, just good supportive care. Electrolytes, garlic, but it took quite a while for it to go away.

Thanks! Seems to be the general consensus. So how do they get it to begin with? That's the one thing I haven't found yet. I know its contagious, but how does it start?

No update on the chicks since they left the facility this morning at 5 AM. I had them sent to the post office at work, in a little Podunk town, so the post office doesn't open until 12. I'm hoping they call me as soon as they come in

You might try using the back door…..

That's what I was figuring on doing. The bad new is, its one of the birds that I plan to get rid of (I think) So I'll just have to see what she thinks, or how experienced she is. Maybe give her the other one. Its a big comb, but on a very small bird! Little OEGB boy. Now I see that one point was pale when I took this pic January 23rd. Or it could be the other male. I didn't pay attention to which one it was.

How do feel about dubbing?

I don't like the looks of them after dubbing, and I know I couldn't physically do it. If I were going to show him, I know that would be required, but I have no desire to do it.

I've don't it a couple of times. I didn't like doing it but my birds did fine. I'm the opposite, I like the trimmed look.
