Random Large Bald spot!

[shinobikelbel]

My albino dwarf rabbit is about a year old,he has develped a large bald spot under his head, on the front of his neck about a toonie in size.It's pure pink,no infected or unhealthy skin...just no fur(on one teeny tiny spot there seems to be slightly sore skin,and it's red but not scabby).He doesn't seem to be in any pain and he's not acting any different but I'm worried about him in case it is something that is bad.He doesn't seem to be scratching it,or even licking there cause it's in a spot that he can't get his tongue to reach.He's also unneatured and no other rabbits.And he lives inside with us.He also has no other bald spots,just that one,worried about the little guy so any advice might good,whethere it's home remedies or if he needs to go to a vet.anic:

(I tried to get a picture but cause of where it is,he didn't like his head being lifted)

It's possible he is molting. Some rabbits will molt their fur in chunks. If there is flaking, irritation, and/or redness of the skin, then it could be due to mites, fungal, etc, and you would need to take your bun to the vet to get the appropriate treatment.

yeah,I was thinking that to,it is that time of year when they begin to shed their fur which he has been, I just never saw a big chunk like that come off him before so I got worried.I'm gonna keep an eye on it and see if hair starts growing back,or if it becomes sore then I will take him to the vet.

Thanks for your reply!
