My drake is a Khaki Campbell. I got him when he was 8 days old and we didn't put him with the others till he was 2 months. He always follows me around and is very friendly with people not so friendly to my dogs or cats. He has got my husky a few times in the butt and she has never even bothered the ducks.
we lost our one girl last month so its just him and one other female. the last week he has started to be aggressive towards me and others. My female has laid a nest and once it got to about 10 eggs he started this biting my feet every time i would walk now it's my hands as well. I have tried the pin him down , time outs , ignoring him and nothing is working in fact he is just getting worse the more I try to show him I am boss. My girl is only sitting on the nest at night and not in the day. I don't go near the nest when they are around
I will not be giving him away or eating him. He is great with my girl even though he mates her several times a day he is gentle towards her.
I know he is protecting her and the nest and this is just his instinct
does anyone have any other things I can try?
should I remove the nest? Because she is only sitting at night I have taken her eggs out and replaced with chicken eggs so i could incubate hers. I really wanted her to do this herself but she is young only 6 months and doesn't fully get what she is doing yet
