Duck shaking head when eating?

[jannakaye]

My pekin/runner/not sure what breed is shaking her head when she eats, slinging out most of the food. She only does it when she eats corn, with watermelon she's fine. Is it just her chewing? Goodness I worry too much! Sorry if I'm bothering anyone.

Does she have water close by?

 

[jannakaye]

Yes, a fifteen gallon waterer that's changed daily is about a half a foot away from where she eats.

Ah yes, that is a condition we call "being a duck".

Mine shakes her head all the time and flings food out when she eats. I call it the nom-nom-ptooey game.

Lol I figured I was overreacting! Thanks!
