Why is my duck doing this

I just entered the link of my video above and was wondering if What my male welsh harlequin duck was doing is normal. It wasn’t a quack because there was no sound to it. Please let me know thank you.

Looks like hes trying to swallow something. He needs lots of water before, during, and after he eats

if thats not the issue feel around his neck for an obstruction and look down his throat as best you can

Hes realy cute btw!

They always have water access he seems to be better now but thank you so much I get worried a lot hahah

Thats alrite! its good to observe them closely, ducks try to hide illness so we keep a close eye on them

My ducks do that a lot right after their nap-time in the grass mud, i assume it is the equivalent of us yawning.
