I don't think that would cause hair loss, though. Are these mice petstore-derived or show mice? Often petstore-derived mice don't do as well on high-protein diets and will develop protein allergies which lead to hair loss.
Other possibilities are ringworm, mites, or another external skin condition.
If you could post pictures, that might help.
I hope you get it figured out.
