fur mites?

[st06qi]

I am a new bunny-mom, this is my boy, Sparkle, 3 months old holland lop.
I found this on his back and from google, i think this is fur mites?
Should I bring him to the vet? or is there anything I can do myself to treat it??

thanks

Does he live by himself?

yes, he is by himself. we only have 1 bunny.

You can treat mites with Revolution (selamectin), gotten from a vet, or ivermectin 1%, which you can get from a feed store. Since you’re new to this you might want to go to the vet. Once you have some revolution you’ll have it on hand if he gets it again. Rabbits can get mites from hay.

Hi, how long he's with you? It looks a bit like a scab maybe he was housed with other rabbits previously and most likely other rabbit just bit him, from where I am it looks like healing I would just keep an eye on it if there's any inflammation but maybe if you post a clearer and bigger photo I will change my mind
