My bunny is missing a patch of fur. Help me please.

Hello everyone. My name is Marie.

This is my furry little friend, Bruno.

Bruno ran in front of my dad's car one night and we decided to keep him. I don't know how old he is. I've had him now for about a month. I live in Miami and I have him out on my balcony in a cage which is kept clean. I feed him bunny food and the occasional fresh carrot as a treat. I leash-trained him and take him out for short walks a few times a week around my apartment complex.

About 4 days ago I noticed that he's missing the fur on his inner left hind leg. The skin looks fine. There's a bit of redness but that could be his normal capillaries. The flash realy makes it look redder than it actually is.. There are no visible bumps.

This is his inner left hind leg:

And this is his inner right hind leg (the one that looks normal):

Does anyone have some insight as to what could be wrong with Bruno? Any help is greatly apreciated.

Best regards,
Marie & Bruno :carrot

P.S.:I apologize for the giant pictures, I'm not very tech savvy. :S

Also if anyone has any insight as to his breed and age that would also be great. I can post some more pictures if needed. Thanks!

He looks like a mix breed mini. Is there any waxy looking flakes around the area--if so then it would be ringworm. Or he might just be over grooming. Serena and Stockton would get bald sots on the back of their neck this time of year and vet couldn't find anything. Hard to guess a bunnies age once they've stopped growing. Also noticed in the pics he's in need of a nail trim.

There are no waxy flakes. The skin looks pretty normal. And I will definitely get his nails trimmed. Thanks!

I'm not good at this kind of thing but it might be good to get him to a vet. I hope he's alright!
