Weird skin issue with goslings

[Avery1271]

I have 2 brown chinese goslings that are a couple weeks old that I recently bought. Both are eating and drinking and acting fine. One has yellowish scab looking things on its legs and seems to be spreading more and more, the second goslings has the same thing but it appears that it is also around one of its eyes causing the eyes to be swollen. Could anyone maybe help me with a possible issue and fix for what is going on with the goslings?

Im sorry your babies are going through this! unfortunately this is one that has to be seen and treated “if it can be” by a vet if that’s possible for you. It doesn’t look like an at home fixable situation.

It looks like it could possibly be some sort of serious bacterial infection that’s causing necrosis, or it could some sort of carcinomo which can be genetic or viral in origin. If it’s bacterial it might be treatable with the correct antibiotics, if it’s cancerous, I’m not really sure about the outlook for birds.

Ok thank you

If it’s at all possible for you get it looked at by a vet, I’m not a vet so it could easily be something I just haven’t seen. If a vet isn’t an option it’s understandable, I’m in a tight spot and there aren’t a lot of vets willing to see vets where I am so I more than understand.
