I have this happening also. It's my first baby king that was given to me by a friend. It did not have this bump when I first got it. I fed it heavy at first (2-3 pinks) every 4 days. I was amazed at how much food they could put away, but then after about 4 feeds it regurged. Figured I was feeding too heavy so I waited a week and gave 1 pink which it held down for 2 days and then regurged also. Decided to wait another week and try again and this time no regurge, great! but then I noticed the bump. It is soft and closer to the head so I knew it was not a meal in it's stomach. It has been a few weeks, I have been feeding 1 pink a week with no more regurge but the bump is still there. It looks, acts, drinks and feeds perfectly normal. Was gonna give the animal away to someone else but since I see that I am not the only one with this problem and there have been cases where it has gone away, I am gonna keep him and work this thing out. Thinking maybe the whole regurge thing may have sparked this, but from other post I see this has happened without regurging. Just thought I'd chime in.
