Duck is acting strange

[Brookep2000]

I've had my duck for about 9 months and she is really spoiled so I keep her outside for most of the day then let her in the house before dark for her to eat (she is a very picky eater she only likes dog food) and then I put her in her cage. Lately whenever I go to bring her inside or she sees me around she starts to quack very loudly even after I put her down inside and when I try to hold her she bites me. She has always been very spoiled and likes a lot of love so she is just acting very strangely. Any ideas what can be going on?

Is she laying eggs ? It's breeding season, and she may be wanting a mate.

I think she might be she keeps sneaking out her cage and hiding somewhere until she wants to eat

It sounds like she is either developing nervous habits due to being housed with only humans or she is hormonal because of spring-time. I suggest you get her another friend very soon, ducks are flock animals they are meant to be with other ducks 24/7, not humans.
