Hi everyone! I have a female mallard. Just one. She's about a year and a half old. She's runs with the chickens and doesn't seem to know she's a duck! Anyway....Over the last week or so she's been acting strange. Now, I've seen her do this before, but not like now. She spins in circles several times a day like she's chasing her tail and squawks.....LOUDLY. I've noticed her feathers are looking pretty rough and I've found several throughout the yard. Is she molting? Maybe trying to get the backside feathers? She's not egg bound. She lays everyday. She acts just fine otherwise.
I have no drakes, so it's just her and a bunch of chickens.
Any help would be appreciated!
