Scratch in duck beek?

[Cassidykassis_88]

My ducks beek seems to have a dent or something and I was wondering if it’s cracking or if I’m over thinking it he also keeps kinda choking on his tongue and I was wondering if any of these are concerns

It looks very minor to me, nothing I would worry about. What do you mean by choking on his own tongue, can you post a video?

 

[Cassidykassis_88]

I don’t have a video but if I get one I’ll post it the best description I have is that he kinda sticks his tongue out and whips his face around where his tongue goes back and fourth

Almost like he coughs, and then shakes his head side to side rapidly?

The dent looks alright, duck beaks get scratched and chipped sometimes, but it’s usually fine if it’s that small. But the tongue thing is worrying, I don’t wanna worry you, but my duck used to do that when she had seizures. Can you try to look into his mouth to see if there’s anything in his throat?

Nothing coughing wise sometimes his tongue comes out and he wiggles it like twice out of his mouth I don’t know how to explain it

Usually, do that when they have something caught in their throat/mouth, Is he still doing it? Do you feel anything along his neck?

It’s been happening for a while now I don’t feel anything
