New duckling

[Countryman101]

Good evening. Ok have a question my duckling will be 2 weeks tomorrow. I went to tractorsupply this morning and ended up getting a couple more baby's. But before I got them I spoke with a lady that works there that I spoke to before about ducks and she has ducks herself and she said it was OK to place theses babies in with my 2 week Olds. But my question is has anyone agree with that. Because when I did that one or a couple of them would try and lay on the baby's to I don't know why I think to kill them and other one grabs them by the head or neck and carries it around.. I sat there and watched them for awhile. But ended up separated them. I'm not sure if they are just bullies. I read that ducks are except others in there flock am I wrong.

I had a batch hatch 2 weeks before the one under mom hatched
I had to keep them separate for a few weeks because they tried to pick her up by the beak and throw her
I had the pens side by side where they could see each other at all times
I would also hold her while I sat with the older ones
By week 3 I was able to put them together and they accepted her right away
Because you only have one older one it maybe more willing to accept the younger ones as it would be lonely

I have 7 that are 2 weeks today but only a couple are picking on the younger ones

Is there a way to split the brooder so they can still see each other but you'll give the new babies extra time to get their legs under them good and get a little growth on them too. I used a piece of hardware cloth and wrapped the egdes in tape so no one would get pricked on the metal.

I agree with the advice given, I'd definitely separate for couple weeks at least. Let the babies grow bigger and introduce once they're closer in size.
It would be beneficial if you could separate them in a way that is "see but no touch". Like @Miss Lydia said, if you could divide their enclosure
