Hi Everyone! I just wanted to let you know that Speedy made a FULL recovery... It got really scary, both her eyes closed with sores and I was feeding her by hand several times a day... But she's back to her old lovely self! Thanks to everyone that helped!!!

Aloha! Tonya

I'm ganna say she probably had fowl pox.
Looking back on the second picture (i don't think i saw that pic before), it reminded me of fowl pox lesions.
Don't worry, luckily its like the chicken pox where once you get it, they can't ever get it again.
She is now immune to it.
Its normally not deadly in its dry form (lesions on the outside, on face, wattles, etc.).
But can be deadly in its "wet" form (lesions in the mouth/trachea)
Its a virus caused by mosquito's.
I'm very happy to hear she is doing much better!
