new pekin duck

Hello all, I'm new to the site buthave been reading it for years, I currently have 4 teenage rouens and have just aquired a 5 day old pekin [was sick but has been nursed back to health] I was just wondering when/how to introduce bubba to the other ducks?

When Bubba is about the same size it ought to be okay to be right in with them under supervision at first.

But in the meantime, having them in sight of each other, especially giving everyone treats at the same time, will help break the ice. Adult ducks can be nasty to littles. Then again, sometimes it works out beautifully. But I would not trust adults and ducklings together unsupervised.

Thanks! Bubba already had a run in with my female. Scuffed his beak but no permanent damage done, but defiantly worried me for the future!
