2 of my pekin ducks tried to mate today, or at least I think they tried to. The female laid flat on the ground and the drake was starting to get on top of her, but I stopped them before it could escalate. They’re only 15 weeks old, so I don’t know when pekin ducks start mating. The hen sometimes will do this thing where she bows her head low and makes some sort of quacking noise like she’s trying to get a drake’s attention or something when she’s walking next to them. I don’t know exactly what her behavior is. Is this normal? Are they trying to mate?
