I have a male duck and I need a female duck for him because I don’t want him hurting the chickens if he tries to Breed with them
 
Not right now because he is still young and he lives with them they get along
 
You cant get him just one girl, you'd need to get at least 4 but maybe more girls for your boy so he doesnt over-mate any of them, and he still might go after the chickens - it's not a guarantee that he'll ignore them if he has more ducks
 
The fact that you raised him with chickens increases the risk of him getting confused. I recommend culling him as soon as he reaches butchering age (8 weeks). Then, if you want ducks, get females only.
 
Or you could get more boys separated from your chickens of course. He needs a duck buddy or buddies.
Hope things work out! :)
