Scabs on caruncles?!?

[turkeyluvr]

Ok, I have a turkey hen named Annora. Recently I have noticed she has scabs on her caruncles( I guess that is what it's called!) The scabs are on the blood filled pouches on her neck. Thinking they were chapped I put some Vasaline on them. I have also noticed she has gotten two or three worts behind her eye. I am afraid she is sick with something! Also, does anyone know any Avian vets in GA? Please reply!

I'll bet she has dry pox. Look up a few pics and see if it looks like what she has. If so, don't panic! It looks awful, but is just a nuisance virus from mosquitoes. It will pass in about 3 weeks. No long term harm.
