Yes, it will not hurt them. Ducks are often kept with chickens and they share grains. Keeping the chickens on a regular diet of duck specific grains is not a good idea as the nutritional needs of the species are slightly different. You will not get your best growth and egg production from hens fed this way.

Yes. Ducks and chickens are often housed together in the same pens and coups. Remember that ducks do not roost on perches, but on the ground.

We can do a lot of things, but we can't change chickens into ducks. If you somehow were able to acquire four ducks, we could put one into each cage and then it wouldn't matter how we divided the chickens.
