Aggressive magpie duckling

[MelissaF]

So my 3 week old female magpie has become extremely aggressive towards humans. She spends her days outside with my older ducks who are fine with her and they are fine with humans but she would rather attack and pinch rather than retreat if she's scared. She's handled regularly. She even lunges at faces, fingers or Even the mop. She hates being touched. How do I break this?

it seems like she doesn't trust you. I would go with a more hands off and positive reinforcement approach to gain her trust. She may never be a cuddly duck.

It's weird because she use to be. And she follows us around

Each duck is an individual. She may come around. Only time will tell.
