Default Re: Bald patch - why??

Mites can be in the bedding, so its a possibility. If you get a spot on for him the best one is beaphar from P@H, avoid anything by Bob Martin.

One of my young males recently had a UTI and then he got a bald patch in the same place as your hammy. After a vet visit we came to the conclusion that it was stress related as he had been poorly with a UTI, his hair is now growing back nicely with no intervention from me.

It might not be the same for your boy but its another explanation for you to look at.
