My duncan is getting these lateral bulges just at the base of the flesh of the head, it's got these at several places around the head, are these new heads or something else ?

I am guessing so. They grow pretty fast if you feed them. You see little heads growing off the side and eventually the form a new polyp. They are a fun coral
 
Probably new heads! Mine grew from 2 heads into 8 in 3 months with pretty heavy feeding.
 
What do you feed your Duncan coral
They seem to be omnivores. Mine get Mysis shrimp, pellets, flakes, spirulina and various powered coral foods. I target feed them, which really seemed to accelerate their growth.
