When I had my ducks I had the same problem. What I did was made sure that all ducks had plenty of room and it settled down. Someone else might be able to offer another suggestion.

I have no other ideas. You cant keep them separated for ever, either. Betty, you have tons of space out there, so I would be inclined to leave them to it and let them sort it out. (Unless one is being injured in the process). Drakes are quite territorial I have found but once they have accepted the newbies they should be able to coexist. It might take a while for this to happen though, not just a few days.

Thanks guys
Yes they free range on our 6 acre farm so they have heaps of space and they also have 2 dams to choose from also...No one is being hurt or injured so I will just keep a eye on them all.
Cheers Betty
