I have two Gosling that are roughly four weeks old I believe. One of them has spots that seem to be different than the other and I'm not sure if it is normal or cause for concern.

it might just be molting or it might just be natural... ive never really handled goslings just muscovies wich are thought to be geese
 
The spot under the wing ended up being a dime sized scab it seems. I went ahead and removed it and there was a wound underneath that I cleaned. Can a wound cause the surrounding area to look like that?
 
the other gosling could have bit the under wing and made a scab (unless you knew where it came from) but sometimes when you pick the scab the duckling can get an infection.. just go to ts to get a bacterial spray to make sure she stays away from those bugs
