For the past couple of days I've noticed that on Gussy's chin their is a small patch of fur missing. I'm very worried. He's been acting normal. I pretty sure he hasn't been scratching a lot of of the ordinary. I just really hope it's nothing to worry about. I wonder if he just scuffed it off or rubbed it off etc. Him and Aflie are not in the same cage so it couldn't have been from a wrestle. Please respond and thank you in advance.
 
Does it look pink/red ?
I'd be getting a vet to check just in case :)

If you could post a pigture that might help the experienced people to help you :)

Hope all will be ok XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
 
The skin is just a light pink, like all his other skin. The bare spot is about a little smaller than a pinky fingernail. I don't know if this is a problem or if he's just happy but when I pet him good enough, he sometimes does a little squeak. Does that mean he has mites? Thanks
 
PS. It might be that he just scuffed it off because if I remember right, the first day I noticed it there was a patch of fur connected? {:|
