Did these appear suddenly or has he always had them? Maybe they're bug bites.......

Could be hives if he ate something that didn't agree with him. My Nickle gets hives from amoxicillion so they had to give him a different antibotic

Oscar gets them occasionally.  They seem to come and go and never seem to bother him.  They were discussed here.

Jeter and Bonita's Nibbler both had similar sounding bumps, just on their heads. Turned out to be a bacterial infection. Nibbler I believe got oral antibiotics for them and I was given a antibacterial cream for Jeter. If they don;t clear up soon I would see your vet.

Nibblers started on his head, and then worked its way down to his shoulders and then to his hip area.
IF they don't go away soon, take him to the vet. The antibiotic was relativly cheap I think it was like 13.00
