Is it normal for ducks to lay so many eggs without a mate?

Hi!
My duck is 3 years old and started laying eggs in her first year, However, she doesn't have a mate (which I know it is normal) but this year she has been laying an egg, sometimes two per day for over 3 months!! Is this normal? I never had a duck before, so I am totally clueless. I'm afraid this might affect her in any way. She is a small duck(don't know what breed is she) and her eggs are quite big for her size and the shell is really hard.

Domesticated ducks, like chickens, will lay regardless of the presence of males.

Oh, and she looks like an Orpington.
