Wattles:
Fleshy appendages on the chin or throat, such as on a bird or goat.

I suppose it might even extend to feathers.

However, commonalities are apparent in the patterning of these appendages. Hair, feathers, glands, teeth, taste buds, and intestinal crypt villi are similarly induced under the direction of epithelial and mesenchymal interactions.

agree  Charles Davis: That's right: skin appendages. Formally known as faneras in Spanish. They can be called adnexa in technical medical English. // I learned it here: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/spanish_to_english/medical_general...

  -> Thanks, Charles, I'm not familiar with the word "fanera", though yes, adnexum is what you'd called an appendage in a body's organs.
