I think the new Muscovy duck looks to be female, as well. Maybe name her Pablotte after another special Muscovy duck who just showed up one day to bless the farm with his particular brand of friendliness. I do miss him!
Okie trying to mount you is not a sexual act, it is a dominance act and you are correct to not allow him to do it to you. I envy that you all have sunshine. Here in Illinois, we haven't seen it in a couple of weeks and the forecast shows it will be cloudy and overcast for another week. Luckily we have gotten up to the 30's and 40's which is a nice relief from the freezing temps we had. Love seeing all the animals. Thank you for sharing them with us. They sure do love you.
Meghan, you can not elimate animal behavior of mounting on you or other animals from Oakie by scolding him. He is an animal, and his hormones don't listen to anything. Daniel's Alpaca (from Arms Family Homestead) was recently killed by displaying that same kind of behavior on Steve, their donkey. Please get Oakie neutered.
Good job Megan, thank you for giving us your time and its great to continue to set boundaries with Okie he’s still young. Let’s hope the new duck & Adam or Steve become friends. 🦆
At Okie’s age it’s not so much ‘mounting’ in a sexual sense,more exuberance,possibly hierarchical dominance,but mostly he’s just young & full of beans. That said,i’m very happy to hear that you are using a stern voice 👍 (& push him away hard if necessary) – nip it in the bud now,while he’s young & malleable,& before he’s big & strong enough to hurt you badly. 🤗 The neutering i know you will take care of when he’s older & it’s time,you were on it for the bucklings & did all your research 👍 Temporary separation if necessary to keep both him & the other animals safe & interacting with him over the fence to keep YOU safe if it comes to it,is better than neutering too young before bones have closed. But you are great with all the animals,so i’m sure you can get him out of it before it becomes a habit or a problem,you are doing an awesome job there! 👍
Male miscovey have a longer tail than the female.
Are you going to get aingel fixed he could get dangerous soon when he get to that age?
You are right to control okie's bad behavior no matter what people think or say 😊.. love animals videos ❤

Boy. He looks just like Pablo and Adam or Steve. Ol 0:35
Annie looks pregnant
Cold, foggy. 16+ pf snow on the ground. We are supposed to get some days in the nestbfe days. I’m from IOWA.
I know Okie isn't old enough yet for neutering but what about all of the goat bucks? Have you gotten them all neutered
Hero’s tail looks really long😂❤
Corney didn't look right are you sure he is OK.

It might be time for Lester and Jami to check and see if OKIE DOKEY can be fixed yet.
😊 Gorgeous Ms Meagan
I love in Roanoke , Virginia it's raining here
Okie is trying to dominate you by mounting you. Nip it while he's a baby. Somehow show him you (humans) are dominate Sweet Girl. ❤❤❤
That new duck is beautiful i like the name Yosie for the duck
North Wales UK . Wet ,wind and snow on the way. Roll on spring.
I hope Okie stays sweet.
male ducks or drakes have a feather that has a curl in the tail females dont
