Muscovy hen biting problems.

I love my Muscovy ducks, Yes they can be a pain when broody but I guess I have put up with it so long it's second nature. lol
Temperamental females when broody. Which is often.
Most all my drakes have been good boys just can't keep more than 1 as you found out. This drake I have now from hatch 8 yrs ago imprinted on me since his mom didn't want him so he tries once in a while now to treat me like one of his females. Wants to grab me and bite. Maybe try this on your female put her in her place.
Got it, is it possible for her to be broody this young? She hasn't even started laying and doesn't actually stay in her coop, she doesn't stay nowhere specific, but I do let her out early in the morning for swim time, around 6.
 
Beedee started doing that to me, chasing and biting - I think she thinks I'm the head drake or a drake because she'll chase me around the yard, room, wherever and grab hold of my pant leg like they do each others wings. She really starts doing this if shes in the pool and I try to use it to wash my hands off or something. She'll start chasing then jump in the pool and splash around then surfboards, like she expects to get mounted. If I walk away from her she zooms out and latches o to my pant leg again.
