Not sure I understand totally your need. However, you don't need wildcards.
Setup one forward zone (conditional) for each domain you want to forward -
done.
That said, you don't need forward zones to do this. You could also setup
delegations for each subdomain (i.e. domain1.goofy.micky.mouse.com, etc) and
use the NS records for the respective dns server that is authoritive for
that domain. This is the more common method to delegate a subdomain. Did I
miss your intent?
