My two year old cockatiel has a lump on her cheek. She wont let us touch it, though. Its the size of an ant egg.

It could be a feather cyst. A Google search will give you more information.
Have you tried swaddling her with a cloth so you can get a better look under her feathers?
If the answer to any of the following is yes I would recommend a visit to an avian vet:
Has she lost weight?
Is it worrying her?
Has she lost her appetite?
Has her poop changed?

I agree with Casper's 2nd best friend....anytime you are concerned, a visit to the vet.

Sorry, I couldn’t connect to edit my post. It was a sort of seed. She scratched it off.
