    Hairless baby???
    Is this signs of a hairless or a skin condition? I had a litter of rats 3 weeks ago and 4 were born and one of them is now loosing fur. It had all its fur at first but in the past 4-5 days its lost almost half of it. There is also no sign of a skin condition, no scratching, itching, or anything.

    Sounds like the parents carry hairless, especially if only a single baby is losing their hair, if it was mites or something it seems like you would see it on others in the colony. Unless the parents are rex then its a homozygous rex.
