get a crop swab tested that will tell you better.

if they are hard yellow spots scrape one if sore red underneath get cannisten cream put in throat and it will clear    promise

you can check it out on the above (scroll down the page)

 

yellow spots - canker

whitish spots - salivary stones

I would definately separate they ones from the rest of your birds just now just to be on the safe side, until you find out what it is.

it sounds like  they have had some type of infection ,and got over it you get this a lot and those that have had this know it is best left alone ,it will go away eventually ,just keep a eye on the birds with it aslong as they look ok nothing to worry about ,[just had this told to me by a top pigeon vet after he looked at a bird of mine  with the same thing ]i also had it in a pigeon that has flown barcalona this year, he had it 6 weeks before the race .[ the spots i am on about is in the back of the throat not on the sides.]

could it be white not yellow, sometimes this happens after the bird has had a infection in the past

bad move because you can do more damage then good by scraping or rubbing those spots, which can cause bleeding ect,

[ChrisMaidment08]

you just scrape not cut its throat ;D ;D ;D

Agree with les, probable sign of a previous mild infection of some sort. Test came back negative for canker, if all else looks and feels OK, reckon nothing to worry about - and leave well alone.

thanks for advice. think il leave alone and just keep my eye out for any changes
