Hi all,
just wondering if anyone has ever experinced a similar thing or is able to help me out!?!
I have 2 female Peking ducks (almost 2 years old), who normally love my attention, and cuddles, will come up to me when im in the yard (especially when theres food involved) and generally well behaved, they are my babies.
I was away for 4 days over new years, and my parents baby sat them, they said they had no problems. Ever since I have got back one in particular (the dominant one, which is the one who is very comfortable with me usually) has become agressive, and the other follows, and almost showing fear towards me (puffing their feathers, opening their beaks wide and quacking loudly, and running/shuffling away from me). I am 6 weeks pregnant, could they be sensing this?
I also have 2 dogs and 4 silkie chickens and their behaviour has not changed around them.
It has been quite hot lately, they are moulting and havnt layed for about 1 week and a half.
please help!
Bianca
