If the youngest ones are ready to fly now,they'll all get up there together.

Mario,
I remouve the young from there parents when they are about 3 weeks old or ones I know they can eat and drink by them selfs.
I let them in the kit box for 5 days and feed them all they want. So they get to know the kit box and were is the food and water. I whistle every time I feed them so they know is feeding time.
I then leave the door open since the morning and they go in and out of the kit cage. In a matter of day's they start to fly and some to kit. You want them to fly A.S.A.P if you keep them lock up for months some will not learn how to fly and kit good and you will have problems flying them.
Ones you get them to kit and to fly for a couple of minutes you can add others to the kit that kit as well.

IF the first round is up and flying I would not add the second round in the same kit. The younger birds will not keep up. Get the younger birds up and flying well and for close to the same time before you put them together.
Just my thoughts

Yes the difference in age make a big difference. What I recommend is to add one or two young birds to the kit of the older birds at a time (a weeks time).
If your older birds tend to fly high up more than you would like them to, I suggest that you do NOT add any youngster with them. fly separate.
