Just noticed there is a slightly red patch on the top of frankie's back foot. It is only about 2mm and doesn't seem to be causing him any distress but its really odd. There is no hair covering it and looks like a wart or something. I will get a picture if i can keep him still long enough. Any ideas what this might be? I

Sore hocks.
Rexes are prone to it, you could take him to the vets for some cream and make sure he is on thick hay bedding so it "cushions" his hocks
 
Oh really :( That's not good. Yes he is a Rex. He has tons of hay bedding yet he liked to dig at it and sit on the wood of the hutch instead :roll: I will make him an appointment
