My little Millie seems to have dandruff, she is black but as a lot of white specs on her back which look like dandruff, they seem to be coming from one small area. When you combe her she loses a lot of fur, any ideas! Also this bunnie lost the use of her back legs last year and we brought her a cart to get round the garden, this was after the vet said she would never recover, well she has been out of her cart for the last month and made her first thump today, so those legs are on the mend, and for all the other disabled rabbits out there, keep fighting! I do believe it is the love we have given her that as made this happen.:wave:

It sounds like she has mites, I'd pop her to the vets for an injection XXMaxiandScottandbuns

Oh im so happy she did so well with the cart and her legs are on the mend!
The dandruff could be mites. Is the one area theyre coming from near the back of the neck? The vets give injections for those and you can buy sprays for use on your buns fur and around the house. One of our rescue girls had them when she came to us and the vets injection cleared them up incredibly well and her fur grew back really thick in weeks
Good luck:wave:
