We purchased two young females (I think the store said they were about 5 weeks old) about two weeks ago and the day before yesterday I noticed some missing hair and unhealthy looking skin beneath the right eye on one of them. It appeared abruptly and has expanded by about 1 mm since I noticed it. I don't believe she is excessively scratching any part of her body. The other one, which appears to be dominant, has made a quick jab while eating a couple of times, but I haven't noticed sustained fighting.
I am currently looking for a good veterinarian, but in the mean time I would like to get the opinion of more experienced owners on what it may be.
