| Hi, I have had my wee boy mouse Nutmeg for a while now and he has always been a fairly happy little fella; but he has raw skin on both sides of his nose. He is eating normally, doesn't seem to be dehydrated. I do know at one stage he lost weight due to some very strange reason that someone removed his food bowl from his cage and I never discovered what happened to it (Yes, he got another one immediately it was discovered which was a couple of days after I'd cleaned out his cage;this is usually done every 2 days) . He is quite a good weight now and seems to be happy but the raw skin is really bothering me as it looks sore and I don't know what to put on it. I have no idea of his age as I took him on after my son didn't want him anymore and I change his cage around each time i clean it out to avoid boredom for him. I added a cardboard roll and a tissue and he has a little mousey house as well. He didn't like the mousey wheel at all. Please any ideas of what I can do to rid my little fella of the raw looking skin on the side of his nose. I do handle him and I have a special box to put him in when I clean him out and he has not been with another mousey for along time so don't think it's any infection from another source??

| Could you please give us an update on how your mouse is doing? I forgot to ask you what kind of mouse you have.

. How is your little guy? I hope he's doing well. If anyone else has this problem, you can read my response in the Mice forum.
