I have discovered this very same thing on my 2 week old baby king quail. I can see through the skin and when I move it around i can see it is full with what looks like light yellow/cream fluid/ puss. I am going to attempt to prick the lump with a sterile needle and drain it. I will update on the end result with images.
Welcome To BYCSo after about 20 hours of monitoring I have noticed the large lump on my quail chicks neck enlarge and go down twice. After further research I believe this is the crop and its purpose is to store the food before entering the stomach. Looking more closely the baby chicks crop is actually full of all the crushed pallets liquified before going into its stomach.I can see pockets of air as well and will keep monitoring.
