My lionhead dutch dwarf, Luna, has been developing a bald spot on her face, under her ears.
She lives with her sister and there is a conure (type of parrot) that also has free range of my room. It is possible either my parrot or her sister pulled it out, but unlikely because they get along, and even if my parrot would he pecks not rip out fur. There is also no blood.
The closest rabbit vet is an hour away, so I do not want to take the trip and add stress if there is a non harmful cause.
If you know any causes please let me know!

Then it is probably just from a molt. My rabbit sometimes has a bald spot when she molts. No need to worry unless there is redness or flakes or if you actually see the other pulling it out.
 
If it doesn't heal up in several weeks I would take her to the vet. It could be a molar issue and an experienced vet should check to make sure that it is not.
