I've kept one or two rabbits, or several young rabbits, in with ducklings and chicks many times. I find that one or two older, calm, rabbits help make the transition from the brooder to the tractor more smooth. Chicks had an extra heat source for comfort, and the rabbits never cared.
It was especially nice when I had a extremely mean doe that couldn't be kept with other rabbits (she'd kill them). She was very happy with chicks to watch over though. She prefered her grass and nibbling on (non medicated) chicken food instead of her rabbit food, so I just stopped bothering offering it to her. The chicken food offered more to her nutritional wise than her regular food did. She filled out pretty nice (hard keeper, wool block).
Never had a digging problem, even with pregnant does. I move my tractor (now filled with bunnies) once a day for fresh grass.
Also had rabbits in with adult chickens and ducks. Never had a problem.
