My Silver Appleyard female has this happen every so often. She just gets food stuck every so often. I can usually feel along her neck and feel a little lump and then apply a little pressure and run my fingers down along and dislodge it for her.

HiI also have one duck doing this. She quacks regular but if she gets to running she starts making this high pitched duck ‘cough’ sound. She has a deep pool changed daily and forages all throughout the yard supplemented with duck food in pellet form. She otherwise acts fine.
My duck also does this coughing thing occasionally, like once in a month. I thought it might be something serious and I got scared to death everytime but it turned out she just had inhaled dust or something. If it happens rarely I guess it’s nothing to worryShe does it every day but just occasionally. She is normal in a matter of minutes. We felt her neck yesterday and seemed normal, nothing stuck. She always has plenty of fresh water. No idea what it could be.
