Ducks fighting?

[NuggetTheChicken]

Today I noticed 3 of my other ducks almost punching and biting my only pekin duck for no reason. They only did it to her and all three did it. What could this mean?

What sexes and ages?

 

[NuggetTheChicken]

Not sure about sexes, they all sound female and are about 12-14 weeks old

I only keep muscovy. It sounds like some sort of dominance thing. They are starting to mature. @Miss Lydia keeps regular duck I believe. Hopefully she can help.

What breeds are your ducks that we’re biting your Pekin

Well how was the Pekin reacting to this? All about the same size right? I’ve seen my Runners be catty towards one of their sisters to but it didn’t amount to much, now my Muscovy boy they can really get moody and put their sister through a hard time to the point of chasing her down and nipping at her and she got solitary confinement for a couple nights and it got her straightened out. It’s usually hormones that causes it.

Just standing there. She is the biggest and tallest out of all of them. They just nip at her, not to the extent of chasing her

 

[Miss Lydia]

Hopefully they’ll work it out among themselves. Just keep an eye on it.
