Hello There.

Somewhat recently we added a potbelly pig to our farm and I was wondering if anyone else here keeps theirs with chickens and ducks, because I am hoping to get some information on co-housing them. Thanks!

 
I would not co-house them. Pigs like meat, especially chicken meat. I would keep them separate, maybe rotate their areas from time to time.
 
If you house the pigs and poultry together, your poultry numbers are likely to decrease the the weight of your piggies will likely increase. As far as the pigs are concerned, this arrangement means "The buffet is now open and dinner is served".
