Help!!! I have a major Quacky McDuck

Nest?... does she have a hidden nest?

I've been looking, but we have ferns and brush everywhere. I'm hoping it's just a broody thing, but why she doesn't nest with the other girl that's already a week into sitting on 9 eggs. I sometimes shut the door on the house so she has to stay in there. She doesn't scream when she's in there with her 'sister' but she won't just sit either. She's real wacky with her nests. She'll build one here, put an egg in it, I won't touch it, then the next day, there's another nest in a totally different spot with an egg in it. She used to be my sweetest and easiest duck, now she's satan....but I still love her to pieces. It's just getting hard to be THAT quacked at every day all day.

and she has a nesting box of her own. I'm trying to get her NOT to nest outside the house, just because we're in high predator country. Even the crows try to come after them sometimes. LOL I can't see going all summer like this with her, I want us both to be able to enjoy our yard, I'll try anything at this point.
