Hes like a year old and very dominant. He lives with my geese, they are best buddies...he even is dominant over my gander...
He also attacks my PB pigs when they are in the yard..(the pigs run from him..but sometimes Hammie will turn around and nip at him..i'm afraid the duck is going to get hurt some day if he keeps pushing Hammie..)
He also attacks my husband... he latches on to his jeans or shoe lace or sock (whatever he can grab!..) and hubby just drags him all around the yard doing his work like nothing
... Its crazy to watch..this duck has a grip like pitt bull!
He dosent go after me too often though because i chase him and make him back off.
So,,anyways.. i have 10 ducklings that he keeps bullying.. they technically arent "babies" anymore...they are almost all feathered in and almost as big as he is already..but they are still babies..still learning the ropes..
...but if he sees them near a pool he chases them off, so they cant even swim!... if he sees them eating he chases them off the food....today he wouldnt even let them come out of their house...if they came outside he chased them back inside....
So then i start to chase HIM to try to catch him , so the little ones could at least come outside today..... which then gets the geese mad to me for going after thier "buddy"..and my gander startes attacking ME...
Were ALL running around in circles trying to catch each other....the drake after the babies..me after the drake...the goose after me!...Never a dull moment here..
..
and the poor little ducks are just terrified with all the craziness going on...
So..what CAN i do with this drake!!! I wont kill him... and i cant find a home for him...
Any ideas??
