Hey there! This is my first posting & Iām a first timer. We bought 2 Chamois Spangled Appenzeller Spitzhauben chicks last October and theyāve recently molted if Iām not mistaken. Weāre pretty sure we have a male and female. Issue is, the back ends of both of them ( mainly our suspected male ) are getting black spots on their feathers. I figured maybe this is due to some odd color breeding at one point as I know they come in black and white? Itās not mites as far as I can tell either. The feathers almost look like theyāve been watercolor painted?
Any opinions would be appreciated greatly! Thank you!
First pic is only our suspected roo from today and each pic after is from before thier molts.
Last pic is up close of a feather I found.
Iām hoping not mites?
