My male BD is as healthy and plump as they come, but I have noticed that he has developed two things that seem to jut out at about where the rib cage would starton either side of his stomach. I didn't notice this when he was younger and was wondering if it is normal or a sign of something else.

Could be several things, not enough calcium and/or D3, too much Calcium or broken/dislocated ribs caused by a fall. I suggest you take him to your vet asap to determine what is going on.
One other possibility..are you sure he is a he? If he turns out to be female, it could be eggs you are seeing.
