Is This A Bad Idea?

[MiaGraceDuckMom]

Next Week I get two newly hatched Rouen Ducklings. I already have two 4-5 weeks old Black Indan Runner Ducklings. Is It a bad Idea to get more? I am worried about breeding because I want Full blooded Rouen Ducklings and Full Blooded Black Indan Runner Ducklings. Is there anything I can do about that? Also, will they get along because they are different ages? Will the older couple act like parents? Is it harder to take care of 4 than 2 )(because two is hard anyway)?

about how big are they? since they are only ducklings they shouldn't really care if there are new ones. my only concern is the size difference.

Less than a pound about the size of a fat pigeon

If you want to keep the breeding stock pure, they have to be kept separately especially once they are old enough to breed.
