If you are getting ducklings you will need to slowly let them meet. You might want to put the ducklings in a little play pen of some sort so they cannot have contact but can just see each other. Ducks are very social so I would think they will be fine with new ducklings you will just need to take it slow. Good Luck!!!!!

New ducklings also need to be brooded.

Yes! Never forget the brooder.

I recommend that once the ducklings are grown, lock the ducklings and your duck up together at night in a cage or a wooden box, whatever you choose to do. This is what I’ve done every time I introduce my ducks to new ducks, which I’ve done several times. No matter the way you choose to introduce your ducks to eachother, make sure you check them for injuries.
