Yes, it does look like Fowl Pox.View attachment 4225516is this fowl pox? If yes, how do I help her? These bumps started smaller a couple weeks ago. She's molting so I thought maybe just a vitamin deficiency. They now have grown in size and are on her ear lobes too.
Please help.
Thank you for responding. As of now, she's seems to be eating and drinking ok. She's in a hard molt so it's less anyway. I've secluded her to my garage, waiting for vaccines for my others. She is my fave bird. I'm so sad she's going through this.Yes, it does look like Fowl Pox.
Does she have some swelling on the sides of her face or any lesions or pasty material inside the beak?
The scabs on the comb and earlobe look to be Dry Fowl Pox. Usually this will resolve on its own over the course of several weeks. If you wish, you can paint or dot a little Iodine on the scabs to help dry them up. Don't disturb scabs since this can cause them to spread.
Since she's molting, watch to see she's eating/drinking o.k. It wouldn't hurt to give her poultry vitamins a couple of times a week. An oral dose of something like Poultry Cell at a rate of 1cc per 3lbs of weight is what I'd do.
