View Full Version : Fungus on my juvenile eastern red squirrel.

I raised an eastern red squirrel who seems to have a fungus causing the loss of fur on his topside. He lives wild on my farm in the squirrel house I made him and we spend roughly an hour each day together. I was able to apply Banixx and occasionally cover him in kitten flee powder. Nothing is helping, I do clean him house out each month. Would Ivermectin be an option? I was hoping his immune system would take care of it but living in Maine our winter is right around the corner. Thanks

What does the skin in the areas that are losing hair look like? Red and irritated or flawless baby butt skin? Can you get a pic?
