Hi all,

Pics attached - excuse the green lettuce juice beard!

Does anyone have any thoughts on what this could be?

I only noticed it two days ago, it seems to have come from nowhere. It doesn't seem to be bothering her - I've not seen her scratching at it and she seems happy as ever.

Google tells me it could be ringworm. I'm hoping it's not!

I wonder if it's irritated skin fron the food she's been eating, we did feed her more cucumber than usual recently so I'm wondering if the juiciness had irritated her.

Any thoughts /advice much appreciated :)

Hi and welcome

Please have it vet checked. It really needs a hands-on recommendation.

We can support you with practical tips once we know what you are really dealing with but I could only guess and not very surely from that picture.

But it is definitely not the cucumber.
 
There's a few things it could be but only a vet can tell you for sure. Better (and usually cheaper) to catch things early too!
It won't be cucumber related. Mine get through tons and they're mainly water. I think it's 96%... that's about the wateriest food there is!

(I was going to try and put a cucumber emoji in there but daughter tells me some of these things can 'mean something else' so I didn't dare!)
