Lump on duck

[Jrobb1626]

We acquired ducks when we bought our new house. One of our ducks has developed an odd lump. Anyone know what this could be? He is still eating and running around like crazy

If you’re talking about the lump by the base of it’s neck, that’s it’s crop. I’m not seeing any other lump.

Down by its leg there is a massive brown lump.

Well all be, thought that was behind him on first glance.

Welcome to BYC!
Can you post close up pictures of the lump?

The only clearish image is in the first picture by the right hock.

Do you know how long that has been there? Can you feel to see if it is coming out of the abdomen or is it near a joint in the hip? It may be a tumor.

Unfortunately it will not allow us to get close to him. We noticed it a couple months ago and I think it has grown bigger.

I posted the 2 clearest pictures I had. Unfortunatly he won't let us get too close to him.

Do they have a duck house? If so, you could try to corner it and capture it.
