I warned the vet that Clive is highly strung and very vocal but doesn't bite. True to himself, Clive squealed and squawked loudly while she examined him.
She also thinks its hormonal and a problem with his endocrine system or a seasonal moult. She's ruled out mites, ringworm etc because there are no indications of that. She did mention cushings but said that alopecia on both sides usually happens in the later stages and that there would be other symptoms as well.
Good thing is that i can let Clive free roam in the spare room as well. I've kept the hamsters in seperate playgrounds and they are not happy.
