Many people house their chickens and ducks together. A few bits of advice I have heard (I have only ducks) are to keep the chickens' water up and away from the ducks because they will mess it up and the chickens won't drink, and ducks (except Muscovies) do not roost, so they will need a place where they won't be pooped on by the roosting chickens.

Others will probably have some more details for you.
