I've noticed recently that one of our Muscovy hens is trapping another (older) hen by biting the submissive hen's head feathers and sitting on her back like a drake would to mate
Then when the submissive hen 'yields' the dominant hen starts pruning the other duck and if her target moves the dominant hen chases and pins her down again...
Anyone else seen this, I'm sure its normal, and I'm not worried, it just seemed a little strange?
