bare circles on the top of chick wings

[Jessie404]

All of the chicks in my brooder have weird-looking bare skin circles on the top of their wings. I didn't realize it was weird till I saw that no other chicks in the bigger world have them. One thought was that they were being burnt by the heat lamp I have, which is ceramic and is not covered by anything, but they don't show any pain, and some of the older chicks have scab looking things on it. On the pic attached is one of the more obvious ones, it is on both sides at point on the wing the is facing up, next to the back.

Any ideas as to what it is would be very helpful.

Not sure, but I know mine had it. They grow feathers back soon enough

Thanks, good to know it has happened to other people

It's normal, not to worry. As they grow in their feathers there will be odd bare spots here and there.

It looks like they’re just in that phase where they get naked spots while growing in their adult feathers. I’ve got a few that look like that right now.

This is normal! To get things to come in quicker, you can spray Vetrycin on it to help feature growth!
