What is this on my duck's beak?

Hello, this is my first time raising ducks. There seems to be a red bump on the top of one of their beaks. Is this completely normal?

The duck is a Muscovy, and that's its caruncle - perfectly normal part of their anatomy. In some show strains it can develop to impressive size.

Thank you! At first I thought they were Pekins, so thanks for clarifying.
