Help with dark black spot

[neophyte17]

Hi,
I am new to this forum and new to raising chickens. I have two rooster that are my babies. I love them like crazy. I just noticed that they each have a dark small spot on the bottom of their feet. Very tiny. None are swollen. I have seen some threads about bumblefoot and the surgeries performed in some of them. Before I stress them out and cut their foot open, how can I be 100% certain that it is bumblefoot?
Thanks in advance for anyones input.

I would search for info on bumblefoot and hopefully photos. Is it a raised bump or just dark coloration? Does it affect their walking ability?

Seems to be a spot not a sore or lump and so far he doesnt seem to be affected by it. I have looked at photos of bumblefoot and doesn't quite look like it. The photos I have seen show a large black swelling
