Drake is making me nervous with behavior

[Halizabeth]

Ok so twice now my Marshmallow (pekin drake about 11 weeks old) has rapidly run his bill up my arm while i was reaching down from my chair to per him. I will be rubbing around his bill with my fingers .. the only area he allows me to reach out for so far, thinking I can get to his front neck and eventually to those beautiful white feathers, and he shoots his closed bill up my arm like he was chasing a bug but he doesn't nip or anything. First time I thought maybe he saw an ant, but today when he did it again it was a little startling and I am curious if this is a sign of aggression or dominance and if I need to do something about it. It could be a loving gesture also... but I'm not worried if that is all it is. Any help?

He is beginning to see you as his lady love. Starts out this way and can get nasty so be prepared to begin to teach him you are off limits but not yet.

My drake started off that way then began to bite then wanted to climb up my leg so it’s a hormone thing and there are ways to teach them to realize we are not going to be part of their harem. Do you have females?

 

[Halizabeth]

I have 1 female.. what do I do?? I don't want to be afraid of him so I need to know what to do nd not to do. I tried to film it and he was acting differently but still odd.

For one thing don’t pet him keep your hands to yourself in other words.AND never ever act like your afraid of him I mean what’s he going to do other than want to mate with you. LoL once he acts like he is going to be dominant with you bite or any kind of aggression you want to pin him to the ground either using your hands put one hand to hold his head down the other to hold down his back end or straddle him hover over him and keep him down til he stops trying to get up or bite you it takes consistency but you can teach him to be a nice boy believe me I know my drake is now 7 yrs old and a joy be be around. So just don’t give up on him

 

[Lil Drake40]

Of course spend all the time you want with them but you just don’t love on him

 

[Lil Drake40]

Only 11 weeks I’d say you still have time before he really gets carried away

 

[Halizabeth]

don't pet him? I thought we were supposed to connect with them so they are not afraid or mean.

 

[Lil Drake40]

It’s not that cut an dry when it comes to drakes you can spend time with him just don’t love on him they get full of testosterone and can’t help how they react to stimulation best thing to do is just take it a day at a time and not get over worked since he is still young.

What is going on in the video? Maybe I missed it, but it just looked like he was standing there avoiding you.
