Default Re: IMPORTANT!!! Bald spot on Hammy's leg!!!!!

If the wheel is quite narrow then she could be rubbing away the fur as she wheel runs. If it is xausing you concern a vet visit is best to have it checked out. Older females sometimes do have hormonal issues that cause them to lose fur but this would not normally be on just one side.
