Hi, I have recently treated my Guinea pigs with xeno450, because they were scratching like mad, Rosie has had the three recommended doses over the four weeks, however I have noticed that she has got bald patches that have appeared under her front legs, in her armpits so to speak. There are no leasions from scratching and no dandruff or is red in any way. I am wondering if anyone has had the same thing with their guineas and what it was?
 
Sounds a funny place for it - are you sure it's a new thing rather than something that's always been there? I only ask because I know I get paranoid about stuff!

The Xeno should have sorted out the mites, I suppose it could be something else causing it (fungal or an allergy) if you send pics to Chrissie at Gorgeous Guineas she's usually very helpful!
