Is it all over or just a spot? What does the bald spot look like? Uploading a picture would be helpful if you are able to.

It could just be a case of momma overgrooming the baby, which isn't dangerous. Do you see her grooming the baby often? If the spot looks crusty or bloody at all, I would take him and mom to the vet to check for mites or a fungal infection. Might just be worth going in general if you are worried about it! I would always recommend going at the sight of anything suspicious for piece of mind. Hopefully someone here with more experience can chime in.

I'm afraid we cannot diagnose anything - there are many reasons for losing hair but they all need a hands on vet check. Please have him seen by a vet.

Are you weighing him regularly? If not, please do so so you can be sure he is thriving.

Please have Mum and baby seen by a vet.

Welcome to the forum.
I agree that a vet check is needed to rule out or treat anything amiss.
Please let us know how things go.
