Default Bulging eyes

One of my pond goldfish's eyes seem more noticible than the others.
I'm not sure if it's my imagination or not, it also seems more orange
(lighter in color) and wider??? Is this fish sick, preggers, or just
a stage of development?

Also.. when do goldfish spawn? This is my second year for these fish
and I just noticed ONE small fish in there a couple weeks ago.

they do grow at different rates, genetically can be different sizes.
GF can spawn second year with good nutrition. they spawn in spring when temps rise,
but lots of fresh water can put them into spawning.

Hahaha... okay... let me rephrase that...
Both eyes of one of the fish in my pond seem larger than the eyes of
the other fish in my pond. Not a cyclops situtation...
The top of the eye(lid?)is more noticible than the other fish.

The baby fish is awful small for September.
I wonder how only one managed to survive.
