Does anyone know what the behavior is like of a already slightly aggressive female Cayuga? She's a brat to put it kindly and that time she's kind of an asshole. She's been acting weird very very weird, she was doing this weird laying down thing almost as flat as a pancake next stretched out Wings tucked but it looked like she got ran over. And then she just let me come right up to her and touch her and pick her up and she just stayed in that position. Well that was weird. Also I had gotten to more ducklings kept them separate until the ducklings got big enough to be around Shadow my Cayuga female. Well little by little I integrated them together kind of but during the treat Bowl that they would get in the mornings which consisted of some cabbage some lettuce some frozen corn some zucchini diced up into tiny little bites. Nutritional yeast sprinkled on top couple little handfuls of feed duck pellets and topped with the tiny handful of mealworms that was the only time I could get them all in the same area without the bullying all three of their heads would be in that bowl. My Cayuga went missing recently I only have three ducks and I think she's coming into laying eggs age, but she's always been slightly aggressive I got the babies because she lost her buddy smokey about 2 months ago so I got straight runs and I think that both of the runners that I got to replace the runner that I lost our boys I think they're both boys I don't hear a quack I just hear these cute little chirps and whistles and the female that I had was not nearly as cuddly as these boys are can I keep two boys just by themselves or are they going to kill each other when it comes time for breeding season I don't know how the hormones work. I guess my question is does anybody know what Cayuga female Behavior consists of when they start coming into sexual maturity.?

your cayuga females behavior is normal. they flatten themselves out so that a Drake can stand on their back to mate them. And do not be surprised if you see female standing on females they are just silly, crazy birds..
The two boys can be friends with each other. They may have a little bit of fighting to establish order.
The only thing you don’t want is the two boys with only one girl. when you have boys and girls together, you need a minimum of three or four girls for each boy
