Hey, I'm 17 and I have a small flock of 5 ducks and a pair of geese. I got all of my water foul through a hatchery and raised them in my room until they were big enough to go outside. The gander, Charlie, is a bit aggressive. When we introduced new ducks to the flock, Charlie chased them, bit them, and didn't let them eat or drink. After a few weeks of daily hour long sessions, things worked out and now everyone is cool. I am interested in getting a call duck, but I am afraid that, because of it's smaller size, Charlie will behave even more aggressively toward it.
Any suggestions?

Thanks, Kiki
 
I wouldn't keep a call duck around an aggressive gander. Most people I know with calls keep them in their own covered enclosure or in an enclosure with bantam chickens since they can and will fly away if not clipped or pinioned.
