Hi all,
I’ve just noticed my rabbit Dylan has a circle patch of missing fur about 2cm/just under an inch in diameter on his back . His skin is quite pink. There is regrowth of short furs on one half of the bald patch. The other half is bare, and there is a line of scab/blood around the perimeter of that half of the bald patch.
I thought it might be from brushing but the one time I over brushed him the patch of skin was a paler pink than the skin patch now.
Both my rabbits have recently had their 2nd calicivirus vaccine as it is every 6mo.
Could this bald patch be a negative reaction from the vaccine? I don’t think it’s caused by overgrooming as Frank and Dylan seem to be quite gentle with each other
Should I make a vet appt or monitor the situation?
