Separating and reintroducing ducks with chickens

[NewPoultryMom2019]

Hello!
So short back story, I recently purchased 4 chicks (2 white California's, and 2 black Sex Link) and 2 ducklings (Pekins).
So far they have been together for about a week, and they've done amazing together. However my fiance and I made the decision to separate them. The Pekins seemed to be getting too warm (panting, and moving as far from the heat lamp at possible), and they also got everything wet and messy. To the point where the chicks were getting wet bedding stuck to their bellies!
My question, when I put them all outside in their coop, will reintroducing them be hard?
Also, can I just keep the heat lamp off of the ducks altogether? They are almost 2 weeks old. Our house is pretty warm to begin with. We keep the heat on at least 70°F until summer( I do NOT like being cold lol). On top of that, the room that they're in is a little warmer than the rest of the house since we've put the heat lamp in there, I don't think they'll get too cold?
Sorry if this all over the place! I appreciate any help though!

Best thing to do is set up your second brooder and see how the ducklings do with out heat . If they are real snuggled up together maybe uncomfortable. If they are laying away from each other relaxed they are probably okay. Pekins over heat easily.. when you get ready to move them all out make two separate areas in your pen and coop so they can see each other it may only take a few days for everyone to get use to each other or it may take longer depends on breeds. A large dog kennel inside your pen would work

Thank you!
They seem to be doing great! Just laying around, by each other but not snuggled up like they're cold.

Keep the pics coming they grow so fast! If you have a way to put them together outside on nice warm days with supervision that will help when time to put them all out together.
