Hi all,

Our young guinea pig Flash has had a couple of small patches of hair loss over the last 2 to 3 days. One on the nose and one behind the ear, the one on his nose does appear to be increasing slowly but is probably about no more than a cm in size. He doesn't seem to be irritated by them and we haven't seen him scratch the areas at all.

What could it be?
 
Sounds like it is the start of fungal. You may be best to get it checked from a vet, it can easily be treated with Kwench lotion from Gorgeous Guineas :)
