s horsfield 7 Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 hi every one,just a quickie my albino's just started to loose some fur in the middle of his back.When you brush his fur back it looks like dried blood(dark) but its definetly not blood.He as also got a little bit on one of his front legs as well.If you rub it the fur starts to fall away.I've put abit of sudacrem to see if that helps.Could it be diet or a paracite of some sort,as anyone come across anything like this before.thanks Ian Quote Link to post

Kay 3,709 Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 The black bits in the coat could be flea dirt , get a damp peice of kitchen paper & comb some of the dirt from the coat onto the damp paper fold it over & if its got a red/brown halo round the dirt , then its fleas , treat accordingly Quote Link to post
