Yes. It's mites. Gonna treat all my birds asap
Thank you so much!The pictures are too blurry to tell for sure, I would guess those are poultry lice nits. They are deposited around the base of feathers like that. Some pictures here:

You can use poultry dust or spray that contains permethrin, which is usually available at most tractor supply stores, feed stores, in the US. You can also use Elector PSP, but it's much, much more expensive. You should also clean out and treat the coop, remove all bedding and nesting material and get rid of it (burn it if possible) and replace.
I think one of my girlies has it too. They don't move and are on other feathers too. They only are on feathers.looks like mites or lice. Any other birds affected? are the white things moving? Is it only on his face?
Sorry about the spelling errors. Still trying to understand my new phone.My rooster ha been getting white things leaving on his feathers. Mostly on his face and crop. I have scoured the internet for a cure but it has nothing. Help!
lol! I have had the same problemSorry about the spelling errors. Still trying to understand my new phone.
