I've not come across this before, but it sounds to me like some sort of infection or abscess. Let us know how it goes this afternoon.
And welcome!

Have you been to the vet and come back yet? Just wondering what the Vet thought?

They think its a cyst. Got to keep an eye on it for a week to see if it gets any bigger. Theyll only scalpel it off, might not even stitch it. So may just leave it. Check it everyday. If it breaks or comes off then take him down. I'll keep you updated  |

Keep an eye out for any redness, heat or other signs of infection.
