White cloth-like attachments to feather shafts near cloaca

[HaplessRunner]

I found these on three cockerels that aI was giving a bath last night prior to a show this weekend. Is this an indication of parasites? I am willing to cut them off is necessary. They are very attached to the feather shafts.

Sounds like feather lice eggs.
