Humans do not get fowl pox. Fowl pox is a disease of birds (fowl). Chickenpox, oddly enough, is a disease of humans, not chickens. Fowl pox and chickenpox are not the same thing.
Fowl pox is a viral infection that affects turkeys and chickens. It causes them to lose feathers and get lesions on the skin.
No. Chickenpox is species specific, meaning that humans get chickenpox.
Fowl pox is not transmissible to humans. Fowl Pox affects chickens, turkeys and other fowl. Fowl pox (dry form) forms small pustules on the combs or wattles, or maybe on around the mouth and face. Pustules can also occur on the legs. There is a wet form that can occur inside the mouth. The dry form pustules can be brownish or scabs. Most areas of Texas have wild bird populations that are infected. These infections easily spread from the wild into your flock from mosquitoes most times of the year. Vaccination for fowl pox is a good practice for show birds.
