Question
I have a Holland lop I think ,when I was holding him I saw that he had flaky skin what do I do to treat him without going to the vet

Answer
Dear Mine,

You cannot treat fur mites (the cause of the flakes) without the supervision and help of a good rabbit vet:

for complete information on your rabbit's possible condition, and appropriate treatments.
