Yes same here, she is almost like a puppy chasing her tail but does not quite reach it, her beak gets to the back of her legs and then she twists to the other side and reaches around again. I have checked her for mites, wormed her, checked for injuries-nothing. I have no idea what she is doing...

must be the time of year, I have a 6th month old female muscovy doing exactly the same. The other 21 birds are fine, just her doing this weird thing 4 or 5 times a day??
