We've seen those dark spots on every brood at Times Square. I don't honestly recall at Kodak-maybe I wasn't watching that closely back then. Could be a Beauty thing. I think DC was trying to figure out how to flip it without hurting it.
They were all up and feeding. All 3 have flopped over at one point or another. The 1st one was a yellow foot-this time it was a pink foot. One of them flopped over a few minutes ago & righted itself just fine.
We can certainly ask DEC to look at the pictures if anything really seems amiss.
So Carol did ask DEC on Friday about the dark wing-pits. They said it's nothing to be concerned about. Most likely that the skin is very transparent at that stage and we're seeing feather structures starting to develop under the skin.
They all had the typical avian lice which they get from prey and does not require any treatment. No other parasites were mentioned.
