You know you can't put your duckling right in with either of them though right? AND the new baby needs to be completely feathered before outside for good. I know you've been through this before but I'm a worry wort.

They are 2 baby rouan duckling okay how do I introduce them slowly

I would say give the babies time to settle in, get used to you, make sure they are stable, health-wise (I am sure they are). You may need to wait a while, till the weather is milder and set up a pen within a pen so the bigs and the littles can just see each other, and you can watch them and interact with them, I like to give treats so everyone has a party at the same time. Do that a number of times and when the littles are as tall as the bigs, see if they can be in the same area together without too much fuss. Shoving and chasing are okay in my book. But anything more than that, I call a time out and we try again later.
