    Duck Behaviour

    Hello, I apologize if this thread is in the wrong spot! My female mallard (Molly) is acting more aggressive towards the other ducks as the days go by. She would listen to one of the other ducks who stood up to her and never picked on her after the order was established (Marnie). She’d still...
