Help need to know breed of new duckling

Can you post a pic of it standing up. Also where did you get it. I ask because that can narrow down possibilities or if a cross is possible. Not a Rouen they are similar in color to mallard. Golden 300 if I'm no mistaken are white. Brown ducks include runners and khaki for starters.
On the new pic the eye stripe appears much bolder than I realized maybe a Rouen is a possibility . Not runner or khaki . I think I had the wrong breed in mind for golden 300.
 
You can keep duck hens with chickens. Drakes might be different depending on the individuals. I've occasionally kept a drake with the chickens without a problem, but some have had problems with them trying to mate with the chickens. Also ducks are messier than chickens.

I hear that are messy honing to add a extra door and space box for them in corner to go out to pond/pool. Just hope my Miss Clammily Jane is kind. My husband ready to move me into coop since I keep having him make changes and now I have added ducks to mix

Personally I find keeping a chicken with a group of ducks is very helpful. The “maid” hen turns up their bedding so it’s doesn’t become a poop cake and as a bonus she lays eggs. Oh and my ducks usually preen their hen with their oil creating… a water resistant chicken.
