At what age can i put my ducks with my drake?

I have two 12 week old silver appleyards I'd like to put In with my drake in the main flock. Are they old enough? If not, when would it be safe to do so. I do have 2 other ducks as well. So hopefully it will be an OK ratio.

They need to be close to laying age because your drake will mate with them so at least 4 months. 4 to 1 is a good ratio
