Hi all, I noticed that the feathers around the face and head of my black australorp (Dora) have white specks on the tip. It has been like this for several months - honestly has progressed so slowly that I have not really been concerned. She behaves normally, lays eggs, has never shown any signs of lice or mites around her vent (will have to do more thorough search later though if needed). Is this normal in black australorps, or could it be a sign of parasites? I don't see this on any of our other hens. She does seem to have some dandruff upon closer inspection of these pics, but that could also just be dirt/dust she was digging around in. Pictures included...
