So earlier I noticed that Miranda has a bald patch on her side and her skin is red. She keeps scratching all over her bottom area is also red and she seems to be in a lot of discomfort. She doesn't seem to be in any visible pain but she seems really annoyed and irritated.

She's making horrible squeaking and coughing sounds she's been fine until now and I don't know what's caused this. We think that maybe her wood shavings may have caused this since we recently put more in her cage ao she could dig.
Should we change her bedding? We cant go to the store now so would she be ok with just a towel in her cage just for tonight?
