why are you puting them togerther inthe first place? if you need the older ones to foster the chick it depends on the situation of the pair if they are not a bonded breeding pair with their own chicks/eggs they probably wont foster it

I would say only try it if you have no other options and keep a close eye on them, that may be too much of an age difference and the younger ones may be ignored.
