Hello.
I am getting my bunny soon and viewed some today. One pet shop had a rabbit that had fleas so I avoided that one as the bunny was $50 and it was a mix. However an adorable Netherland dwarf baby grabbed my heart but it has something wrong with it's skin. It had fur missing and scaly skin. It's ears are also quite scaly. If it is an easy fix I will get her and her friend but I am worried it could be quite serious. It does not look like fleas so I am unsure. That is the one thing I do not like about pet shops. They do not take close enough attention to the animals in them.
Thanks,
Any information is greatly appreciated.

might just be mites and a molt, but scaly skin sounds like possibly mange or something else more serious. I'd pass.
