Subject: Keeping Rams together

I just started raising sheep. I currently have a breeding age Barbado ram,a 7month old Barbado ram (I intend to use him for breeding in a year) A blackface buck lamb (about 8 months old) three yearling blackface ewes, and four Barbado ewes. I want to keep all three rams together until I need to turn them in with their ewes. Can I keep them together or will they fight each other? When it is breeding time I plan to turn only one ram in with their respective breed of ewes. Also I was told that I could not breed my blackface ewes until they were around 18 months to the blackface ram but I could breed them after they were a year old to the Barbado ram, because the lamb would be smaller. I look foreward to your responses on these questions.
