Fowl pox is a viral infection that affects turkeys and chickens. It causes them to lose feathers and get lesions on the skin.
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.

Three types of farmyard fowl are chickens, guinea fowl, and ducks. The chicken may be the best known type of farm fowl. However, there are different breeds of chickens, including Wyandotte, Andalusian, Australorp, and Java.
One common type of fowl is a chicken. Chickens are domesticated birds that are commonly raised for their meat and eggs.

There is no cure or treatment for fowl pox. Prevention by vaccine, sanitation, and management practices are the only effective way to guard against this disease.
No. Chickenpox is species specific, meaning that humans get chickenpox.
Avian pox is a relatively slow-spreading viral disease in birds, characterized by wart-like nodules on the skin and diphtheritic necrotic membranes lining the mouth and upper respiratory system. It has been present in birds since the earliest history. Mortality is not usually significant unless the respiratory involvement is marked. The disease may occur in any age of bird, at any time. Avian pox is caused by a virus of which there are at least three different strains or types; fowl pox virus, pigeon pox virus and canary pox virus. Although some workers include turkey pox virus as a distinct strain, many feel that is identical to fowl pox virus. Each virus strain is infective for a number of species of birds. Natural occurring pox in chickens, turkeys and other domestic fowl is considered to be caused by fowl pox virus. Fowl pox can be transmitted by direct or indirect contact. The virus is highly resistant in dried scabs and under certain conditions may survive for months on contaminated premises. The disease may be transmitted by a number of species of mosquitoes. Mosquitoes can harbor infective virus for a month or more after feeding on affected birds. After the infection is introduced, it spreads within the flock by mosquitoes as well as direct and indirect contact. Recovered birds do not remain carriers.

The first symptoms of fowl pox in chickens typically appear about 7 to 14 days after exposure to the virus. Initial signs often include lesions on the comb, wattles, and other exposed skin areas, as well as respiratory symptoms if the wet form of the disease develops. The disease can manifest as either a dry form, characterized by scabby lesions, or a wet form, which affects the mucous membranes. Early detection and management are crucial for controlling the spread of the disease.
No, they can't, it's called squirrel pox not human pox or small pox.
