We show that any abelian surface with multiplication by the quaternion ℚ‐algebra of discriminant 6, with field of moduli ℚ and which is a Jacobian in characteristic 2 and 3, has infinitely many primes of superspecial reduction. This is done by examining complex multiplication points in characteristic 0 and p and the values of a certain j ‐function on the associated moduli space at these points.
