Help identify these growths on roo's comb (pics)

Never seen anything quite like that. May I send the pictures the the avian pathologist I use?

OF COURSE!!!!!

They feel like skin, like a tumor or something.

Centrarchid, I do have mosquitoes , but I can't find any pox pictures that look like that. These are kindof like a raspberry. I'll see if I can enlarge the pic.

Hennible, they don't smell and they feel like grapes I guess.

Egg, it's been a month since I've noticed it and I've been coating them daily with jock/foot/yeast creams. Nothing. He's7 years old .

I cropped this as much as I can. It looks like I need to check his nostrils tomorrow for blockage.

I can't get the pic to come up. (???)

Is he a she ?
Could that be his/her comb ? trying to be a comb.
I don't know the breed.

It's a silkie roo about 7 years old.

Hi,
I Think it is the pox.

Karen, I had my resident pathologist (LOL) look at this, and he said to him it looked like a reaction to an infection of a virus (such as pox) or fungus.

Hmmm. Could be. I will have to do some book reading today. Tonight I'll see if I can get a pic of the base of one of these things. And see if they come off.

I tried to move one and it bled. His nostrils are okay for now. It could very well be dry pox with large pox.

Kathy I like your new avatar.
