That sounds like it might be exactly what’s happening! She doesn’t appear to have anything wrong either it’s just a really weird repeated behavior. We’re working on getting her more adjusted to people and the other ducks so maybe once she gets more used to being in the flock she’ll stop. I’ll...

Yeah I'll try... Like i said shes kinda sneaky and likes to stop as soon as I pull my phone out
