Ducks fighting ?

[Sandrews2015]

We have 2 Male ducks and today we filled up their kiddie pool and stood out there for a bit to watch them...we noticed they started fighting really bad...is this normal because they spend so much time together or what? They were biting each other and getting on each other backs! Thanks !

Sounds like hormonal problems. Drakes will try an mate each other if there are no females. Did they finally settle down? How old are they?

When we left they were still fighting so I hope they stopped lol they were only doing it in their pool I was wondering if they were fighting over the pool ? I have no idea

Spring is coming and it's male hormones. The fighting I think your seeing is breeding each other. All Ducks are sexual. Hens breed hens too..

It's mating behavior. Drakes are hormonally driven.
