Integrating ducks

[tinakevin]

hi all I recently had a duck go missing. This is my first time raising ducks. I have 30 chickens and now only 1 duck. My question is. Do I need to separate a new duck from my flock of chickens and my 1 duck. Donald( yes Donald is a girl lol). I would like to get her a new friend as all she does is quack all day long looking for hazel. Will she attack the new duck or ducks. I may get 2 more.

Sometimes duck introduction goes smooth and sometimes it doesn't. .
If it doesn't, keep them separate in a see but no touch pen for a while while they get used to each other.
