Get enough females for each male. I think you’re supposed to have like four girls per boy or something like that. In the very least, have two girls per boy and be ready to separate any males if neededHow do y’all deal with hormonal males in a mixed flock? Im worried they will seriously hurt the females .
When does the worst part of breeding season usually startMy Runner chases down my Muscovy females with their drake standing there watching. He doesn't mate them though he just runs them down and stands on them for a few secs.
Sometimes I squirt him with the hose to make him stop or I just walk toward him and he jumps off and runs. Only other thing I can think of is drake jail until the worst is over.
