She is a CB, Ive had her for just over a year.
By captive bred do you mean farm raised and then imported or captive born and bred from a breeder? If you don't have the origins or the parents, there's a good chance that the animal was farm raised (captive hatched) and then shipped out. The bump looks very much like a parasite that's found under the skin. I think it's a type of worm. I've seen it before on imports. Otherwise, perhaps it's an abscess forming? You might want to have it checked by a vet.

The breeder is local. I'm fortunate enough to live in a city that has an awesome local pet store that is ethical and only buys snakes from local and semi local breeders. (semi local meaning within a reasonable driving distance.)
