Pekin Duck Club!

Help!!

Tonight we were giving our Pekin ducks water. I have one that is a heavy breather so I have been keeping my eye on him. I gave them water from the garage spout. As he was drinking, all of a sudden he squealed and ran around crazy.. we were so scared and didn't know what to do. My husband then caught him and pixked him up, he calmed down after a few seconds. We thought maybe he had a brain freeze, maybe the water was too cold or could something floating in the water (like bedding) get suck in his beak hole. I replaced the water with luke warm water and he was fine after. Has this ever happened to anyone's ducks? It was very scary and we didn't know what to do!!

Does anyones Pekin ducks have what seems to be a seizure? Our one keeps shaking its head towards the ground and then it suddenly stops. Not sure what it is or what to do but it makes me so upset to watch him freak out like that!
