I have two buff orpington pullets that I suspect might have it. I noticed black spots on their faces and combs three days ago. They are about 10 weeks old. I will try to post a picture tomorrow after school. My camera is not working. They are the only ones that I noticed it on, but the others already have black or splotchy face. They are also on the bottom of the pecking order and I have seen the others pecking thier faces. Could it be fowl pox or just wounds from the others? Is it life threatening? What can I do for them?

ETA: They are eating and drinking normally. Everything about them is normal except for the black.

This is on a turkey but it is a pretty good picture of what fowl pox looks like.

ew. Never mind then. Mine only have tiny little specks. How did that start? Does it always look like that? I will post a picture tomorrow.
