Those are called stress marks and are normal. They can appear from stress or a number of different reasons. Its nothing to worry about.

They aren't necessarily a sign of stress, but if he's new he is probably stressed out from the move. Otherwise, they're just called stressmarks - they can indicate excitement, frustration, being cold, and a number of other things.

In the future, please never hold him upside down. They do not have diaphragms, and their lungs can collapse.
