Well I noticed this afternoon that my smallest chicken Mika has something by her eye. She's acting completely normal and as crazy as ever laying eggs running around and all I haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary with her . She does get pecked on in the summer but she doesn't seem to care with her bald spot you can kinda see it in the pic so I was kinda thinking maybe she got pecked where the bump is but there's no signs of a wound. I was reading maybe it could be a respiratory thing but I don't or have ever noticed her weezing or coughing and her eye looks fine so no mycoplasma so im leaning towards cyst or a tumor? Idk though any thoughts? She's super mad to be removed from the flock

Is it hard all the way through or hard surrounded by liquid? My hen has something similar on her wattle. It is hard connected to the base of her beak with loose skin or liquid around it. It doesn't seem swollen. I was thinking a tumor but if I find anything that helps I'll let you know.
Is it possible your hen has something in her eye that got wedged down their and her body made a lump around it?
 
Shes looking the same as yesterday and I don't think it got any bigger. I was thinking about poking it with a needle and see if anything comes out . I pushed on it and it's a bit hard and it dosen't look like doing that effects her eye . She escaped mutable times outta the pen next to my chickens area because she can really get hight when she flys and she even got under the chicken wire and got back in the chicken area she's hella determined to be with the flock
