Two of my pullets have these strange lesions in the area under their eyes.

Top pullet has a respiratory issue, but the bottom one doesn't seem to.

Top pullet is a lot lighter than her peers at 290g.

The live in a coop with rice husks as bedding. I use a deep litter system.

I've currently put them on 10% enrofloxacin for 3 days.

It doesn't look like fowl pox, nor CRD, nor coryza, nor aspergillosis. I'm a bit at a loss now...
 
It's possible the vaccine didnt "take" due to lack of potency of the vaccine or wasnt properly administered. Additionally it could be a different type of pox virus in which there are no vaccines, ie; pigeon pox, canary pox, turkey pox etc...
If that's the case, the disease will have to run its course.

Hey hi!

To me looks like a injury maybe from pecking but don't take risk you are doing good give Enrofloxacin it will heal also on beak apply some very little vaseline gelly on beak or u can apply Povidone Iodine cream too it will heal in 2 week

So far the other pullets and roos don't seem to be showing symptoms. Let's hope it stays that way.
