The most common reasons may be:

*Change of coat due to age

*Change of coat due to season

*Poor nutrition

*Ringworm (a fungi)

*Mites

*Stress (commonly when confined in small cages)

== == == == It may have fur mites. The two most common types being Cheyletiella and Listrophorus. On white rabbits they can be seen with the naked eye when you have a lot of them. They appear as small black dots, especially on the back of the rabbit. Symptoms include loss of hair, scaly skin and itching. Big problem for rabbit breeders and it is easily spread at rabbit shows. You could bathe the rabbit in a fleas shampoo that is safe for cats, but dog shampoo might be more toxic. Rinse very thoroughly though! == ==

Rabbits lose their fur a few times a year to get ready for the new season. They get new fur. They lose the heavy fur and get a lighter fur for the summer and a heavier coat for the winter. this is called maulting.

Typical reasons for hair loss in rodents (but rabbits are NOT rodents; see http://en.allexperts.com/q/Rabbits-703/Rodents.htm) is stress and malnutrition. Many reasons may include people-too many or not enough around him- food-not the right kind of nutrients for his age and type- environment-cage is too small or too big for size and type- company-may be lonely or too many in cage to be comfortable. For more help go to a veterinary web site that you feel comfortable with. Sometimes rabbits can get a lot of different diseases at that age or he can have ringworm. == You should take it to a vet or groomer to check if you think necessary but here are the possibilities: It has fleas or ticks,A parasite if it was from the wild, or it's loosing it's baby fur Probably sick, if you can afford it go to a vet, if not just give him time and try not to stress him out too much, give him a lil rabbit massage. It depends on many causes. For all I could think of now is that your rabbit may have ringworms causing to see rounded circles of hair loss. It could be due to certain food being fed to your rabbit too. Please consult your vet for immediate action. Your baby boy rabbit may be growing up into a child Rabbit. == ==
