I have a orphaned goose that is now 4 yrs old. Your guy actually looks just like my domestic goslings that are ebdam and touloose. My orphaned guy was just like yours- veeerrry needy but oh sooo cute! I finially decided to put him in w/ my 5-6 week old chicks. I have a larger brooder and the chicks weren't neediing as much heat by then so it worked out perfectly. Goslings don't need as much heat. I would advise you to put henry in w/ the ducklings. You can maybe put chicken wire between Henry and the other guys until they get used to each other? But, my little guy was fine w/ my much older chicks, just a few pecks at first. I fed my baby goose the unmedicated poultry/gamebird mash that the chicks were eating. "Meeps" is still very bonded to me and quite tame, but he lives w/ the chickens and freeranges around w/ them!
