Pet dove has lump under butt

[Tiffy316]

Hey guys, I just noticed that my pet dove has a strange lump under his butt. It's not prolapse, and there's no blood in his stool. He seems to be fine, except for fluffing out the top part of his butt and panting a little. Any ideas what could be wrong.

Any possibility that it's a female trying to pass an egg?

No, he's a male. He actually died not long after I posted this. His vet suspects that it was a tumor.
