Duck belly

[Chickenma65]

Hello, we are fairly new to ducks. My girl is 13 weeks old and she has this pooch belly. Is this normal?

Would also love to know. My ducks are a similar age and one also has a bit of a pouch like that but further back towards the tail

I hope we get answers. I asked in another area and someone said eggs. But I didn’t get anymore answers. I didn’t think they laid this early.

Hmmm. I've never noticed this on my ducks before… I hope you get answers! Does she seem unhealthy at all? What are you feeding her and how much? My ducks are free ranging and I just feed them a couple handfuls of all flock in the morning.

If its an egg, my hen is sure taking her time to lay it! When I feel her belly it just feels like skin, maybe with a little fat underneath
