hello natenla
dont worry it just the cock hassling the hen. the cocks normally hold on the the hens head with there beak when there on top doing what us males do. if it gets any worse just monitor the cock to see if he isn`t belting her up. it happens sometimes this time of year with them, the cocks can get very nasty.
regards oaklee.
