Fowl pox is normally transmitted by mosquitos but can be transmitted by wild birds that come in contact with chickens. Isnt it still too cold for mosquitos where your at? If it's too cold for mosquitos there and your chickens havnt been in contact with wild birds, it must be something else. I find it very strange that the spots are almost exactly in the same area on either side of the comb. Fungus needs a wet/damp somewhat shady environment to flourish. If this is not the case then it must be where Goliath scratched himself to relieve an itch in those areas and the others pecked at both sides of his comb. Like WOT stated,could they have been caused by a metal feeder or something like that causing a scraping or puncture? In any case I'd treat with betadine or iodine then put triple antibiotic or regular neosporin on the affected areas and repeat daily til they heal up. Gosh, he is one big pretty rooster too!!
