Missing Hair right arm/chest area????

[rover]

Hello everyone, I just had a question about my little Ardilla. She is just over a year old and has already had a molt of her tail it has all grown back now. The other day I was feeding her a nut and noticed as she was standing on her hind legs reaching for the nut that she is missing her fur under her right leg/arm it is really bare and pink. Is she over grooming herself there? or is Bobo the boy squirrel pulling out her fur? or is this a strange type of a molt? etc. She seems to be active and healthy other than she is missing her fur on the right side of her chest/under her arm. I will try to get a picture to post. Any help or advice is appreciated thanks!!!!

I'd bet it's overgrooming. Bobo would be missing more than fur if he was pulling it out of her.

Thanks Joan, it must have been over grooming because it is starting to grow back fur again. Thanks for the response!!!!
