Duck Crop

[nennings]

One of our ducks seemed to have a big bulge on her neck. Researching I found crop issues. So I followed some tips for a day and then over the next 3 days...the other 2 ducks seemed to follow. Now I am wondering if it's just the shape they are I have looked up pictures of crop issues in ducks and it looks like each breed is shaped so differently. Anyone with Buffs want to post a pic? Ours go from looking large to shrinking down some. They all act fine and eat like a horse so that's what has me thinking they look normal...but I have nothing to compare to!

Withhold food at night and see if their crops clear. If they clear overnight, you have nothing to worry about!

They don't get food at night....what am I looking for as far as them clearing? Just not looking as big or a distinct line down the middle?

The bulge shouldn't be as prominent/noticeable in the morning, If their crop is still full in the morning they may have some crop problems.
