My french lop Lopsy has gradually begun loosing the fur on the back of her neck, its happened gradually and at first i didnt think much of it.

They were ALL tret with might treatment not so long ago, as Ollie appeared to have them, it was suggested it was from the hay.

Her neck isnt red, but i noticed the skin was flakey?

Any ideas :?

It does still sound like mites to me?
We had to treat Wellie for them once and one treatment seemed not to be enough, or the mites were resistant, i'm not sure.
His skin was never sore just a bit balding and flakey x

Yup Dudley didn't have any redness just a few tiny flakey pieces and the vet said it was mites!

Has anyone tried that Beaphar spot on you can get at P@H it is Ivermectin so assumed it would work OK?!
