not for sure, my female is always getting on top of her sister and our drake. it’s more of a dominance thing sometimes. can you post a seperate video of each one quacking? that way we can see for sure

I can try. Last time I tried to get a video here from YouTube it wouldn't work and I tried a bunch

A couple of my females do this and we read it as dominance behavior.

To add, all our females bob at each other all the time and to us on occasion, usually when we are clutching the mealworm tub. We read this as friendly comms rather than anything, more, erm, sexy.

it’s flirting when they do it back and forth at each other, but my girl runs around the yard doing it while she looks for bugs

Okay. I'll have to keep an eye. I can't get a video to load. I was just out there and they were both talking and going crazy bc I was filling their pool and water for the second time. I think they're a little confused. I usually do it once sometime twice a day. Yesterday was 90+ and today will be hotter so I'm doing it multiple times and have frozen water bottles in there and they don't know what to think.

If they quack they are girls.

I've had 6 girl ducks and they all had duck sex with each other. Ducks are sexual creatures. They bobbed their heads at each other, swam around each other in circles, and sometimes even made stacks of 3.

The head bobbing means nothing about their gender. I interpret it as, "you are so pretty." Sometimes they tell me I'm pretty. Especially when they want something. Manipulative ducks.

Okay. That's good to know. I'm still trying to get a good video uploaded but this stupid phone doesn't let me do anything with videos. I have a hard time sending videos of different things to family (ie tried to send a video of my baby walking to my sister in law). 10 seconds of video took 3 hrs to send. And I have high speed WiFi at home and LTE mobile. Prob just my phone. Idk but I'll keep trying and maybe eventually get something on here for you guys to see them.

Clearly my lady ducks and your lady ducks are related.

I have 2 pekins. I thought for sure both were females. I've been googling some of their recent behavior and now I'm worried I have a male. These guys are 5 months old (give or take a weeks or so.. I lost track of the weeks!) But I noticed a few weeks ago that one was forcing the other to drink. And what I mean by that is they were both standing in front of the water bowl (I have 2 totes that are shallow enough for them but big and a kiddie pool for them) and the one wasn't drinking so the other one kept pushing it's head into the water. I haven't seen that in a couple weeks but now I'm the last few days the one who was pushing the other head into the water has started doing this again and they both Bob at each other. But the one is now pushing the other head down on the ground too and biting the back of it's neck but not mounting or anything. I don't know what this means so any info would be greatly appreciated. I did read that the bobbing is a way to flirt but what about pinning the head down? Should I be worried? Do I need to stop it when I see it? Thank for any help!

There quacks are different and drakes have curley tail feathers can you post just a picture from the side of there tail feathers
