Peanuts are the best! He will learn to open them quicker soon! I've got no experience about avian pox (I'm actually not sure because one had a strange "spot" at the beak but nothing else and I don't see it anymore). Is it very dangerous among crows?
I have no experience either, as this is the first bird I've ever seen with it, myself. According to online sources, it has 2 forms. This "dry" form is considered less lethal. I guess most birds eventually recover as long as the scabs don't become infected or impair their vision or ability to move around. My guess is it's no more dangerous for crows than it is for other birds, just that it has a greater chance of spreading among them due to their social nature. I know it can get worse than this though and still may. But with Briar still faring okay at this point and the rest possibly already having resistance, I am cautiously optimistic about their survival.
