How to tell whether a rabbit is a mite or a fungal infection?
Hello, landlord. . According to my personal farm experience, fungi and mites are actually very easy to distinguish. According to the location, fungi mostly occur in eyes, ears, mouth and face. Where fungi are fresh, hair will fall off, and there are many gray or yellow scabs at the junction of hair roots and skin, similar to wheat bran, and hair is easy to pull out. Mites mainly occur between the soles of the feet and toes. This kind of mite is called foot mite/body mite. It's a bit like the kind of scar left by a person's skin injury. The mites that occur on the ears are called itchy mites, which are mainly parasitic in the internal auditory canal of rabbits. The scabs are brown, layer by layer, and some are rolled up. It's easy to identify. When you tear off the scab, you can see with the naked eye that there are many mites crawling on the skin surface. Most of them are white, and some are larger.
