I had the same problem with a male rabbit I had. He would get them on his back and neck. My stepdad said they were worbles??? or some kind of fly larva causing the problem. I would drain them and spray the area with some farm store disenfectant. The treated area would heal, but another would pop up. I never could cure them and he was the only rabbit who got them so I have to question the validity of my stepdad's suggestion. I would think maybe have a culture run on them and find out what kind of infection you dealing with ~ staph, strep, etc and that may give some clue as to what the cause might be. Watch for scratching, sharp objects, or anything else that may be opening the skin up to see if it is an internal or external cause.
