Subject: Any idea what this is?

2 ferrets that I brought home yesterday have these odd lesions on
them. I have NO idea what it could be. Color ranges from red to
purple to a lovely green.

Both of them have 2-3 "sores" on their backs.

They're not hard, and the skin is the color it appears in the picture.
They're both blowing their coats and we found all the sores by
plucking the dead hair off to help them shed.

We'll be at the vets Monday absolutely... But I'm curious what it is!
