3 month old duck acting strangely

[Little white duck]

It's mating behavior. The duck version of squatting in chickens.

Hi I didn't see your reply a moment ago but I think your right

But there is a thing. She's only 3 month old and she only does it to humans not other ducks. Is she afraid?

Do you have any other ducks, especially males? I've heard of birds (not ducks in particular) seeing their owner as a mate.

 

[Little white duck]

Yes. Three adult drakes that are the fathers of the 3 month Olds. And two 3 month old teen drakes. The fathers are separated from the kids because you know, they are out of control

 

[Little white duck]

The teen drakes are not mature yet so no mating yet

 

[Little white duck]

Ahh ducks are so nice when they are young

Also many female 3 month old sisters of the duck in the video. She's the only one doing this. I might add that she is actually the oldest duck in the batch she came out first probably 3 days or more before any other duck. But I'm sure she's not that attached to humans. Just by her behavior, before she started to do the mating posture

I agree with @sourland , she's squatting.

Well ok. It's good to know it's nothing to worry about. I had thought she might have been sick. Thanks for all you guys help and time!!
