I thought this was a hen as no where near as much red as my drakes, but she keeps jumping on the other hen... Ideas? I have found no eggs so far so not sure where anyone is laying.. I just have the 2 muscovies and have had them only a about a month and a half.

I do know Muscovy but boy can they fool ya especially when there isn't any females for comparison. Look at legs under your duck are they far apart or close together like he/she may walk on a foot when walking?[pigeon toed] Drakes legs are set farther apart than females. My females begin laying around 9 months old. Jumping on another hen means nothing to a female they play hop on top a lot even with having drakes around but you can't miss the penis of a drake so watch closely next time.
