My hand-reared duck is a male, and is biting everyone's feet and legs. When you run away from him, he chases you, and bites you even more. He reacts to aggression by biting even more. I don't know what is causing it, but can someone please help!!!

There are also one male duck and many female ducks in with him, and he hangs around with 2 other ducks, both female.

He is instinctivly protecting his females, not something you have done wrong.
There really isnt much you can do, just let him come to you and dont provoke him.
He is just being a drake, you sould be proud he is doing a good job, if you hatch babys he will be even more protective of them all.

About 7 years ago, I actually had a duck that my little sister found while at the horse barn - this was a wild duck, but he was all alone and just a baby. We took him home and raised him until he was about 8 months old - that's when he turned on us! Much like your situation!
Our vet suggested a wild animal sanctuary where "Wellington" could be with other ducks - it was hard to make that decision, but we knew it was the right one. Unless you live on a farm, I'd suggest finding one or a wild life sanctuary where he can be with other ducks, or, if you live on a farm, get another duck!

not positive what your pink meat is. The geese were outshot 39-23 contained in the game and a couple of of the Wings objectives got here with the guy income. What extra are you able to ask of your keeper?!! Wings followers are those who might want to be pissed off. The geese scored on 3 of 8 images contained in the first era. hard to win on the line even as your guy can slightly reject 1/2 of the images he faces contained in the first 20. Ric Jackman receives his little piece of folklore, Pronger comes again and the sequence turns right into a a lot best of three. if you're a geese fan, be at liberty and count number your advantages. The difficulty might want to have and may were some distance extra dire on your club.

Maybe he is feeling the need to be with a lady duck? I know with my male rabbits, they become aggressive when they become sexually mature...they will chase you, and spray you. We fix that problem by fixing the bunnies, but I'm not too sure what to do about a duck, except maybe getting him a female companion.

get the duck a friend male or female it dosent matter and you shouldnt run around the duck or anyduck because it sets of stimulators in the ducks nerveses system and it makes the duck want to fight!
Learnt that in biology!

Take the duck and duck-tape his little mouth shut, put him in a freezer every time you think he looks at you wrong.

You can put an end to this problem of yours by cooking the duck in the oven...of course you first have to marinate it with some red wine,olive oil and black pepper...

Friend of mine had bunnies and a duck.. She's aweful nutty also, but my point it that she has a duck. duck does the same thing. if you didnt know.. ducks and geeze, def. geese are really mean. many male duckers are like this. it's cause they know their terriory isn't right and you just gotta live ewith it. this friend, the duck only likes her. i dunno.. good luck and happy journeys!

I think that you should either get him neutered or, when he bites, put him in a kennel.
