I'm worried. I hope its not mites or something?

Doesn't look like mites. Could it just be pecking?

Dry Avian Pox? I really don't know.

It could be, but it doesn't look like the pecking that usually happens. Clairee is close to the bottom of the pecking order, but she doesn't think she is. She tries to eat with the big girls, instead of waiting her turn. The big girls do NOT like this, and they peck her. But it seems like specks, not peck marks. Usually the peck marks are larger, and they peck the top of her head, not her eyes.

My chickens get this, I think it's just a scab like thing from pecking or being scratched (just a suggestion not certain)

If its a viral infection, wouldn't everybody else also have it?
