Are scabs on the comb normal?

Both of my cockerels have scabs on their combs. Is this from the little arguments they have over the ladies or do I need to be worried about parasites? I've never seen any parasites and the combs of the girls don't look this way.

I know the big one is a scratch, the ones I'm talking about are the tiny ones that are really hard to see in this pic. Sorry I don't have a better one.
Thanks!

Thanks for the fast reply. That's what I was thinking. The boys get along with each other really well, except for when one is trying to mate a female, then the other will usually run up and peck at him.
