i also have a khacki cambell duck,
in my opinion i think it depends on the specific duck. mine is a bit on the "human " side and would never stand to be locked up with a bunch of chickens. i have three other ducks and they all fare well being locked up with the chickens. so i guess im saying that depends on the attitude of the duck.
Are in the light weight class. Khaki Cambell ducks are one of my favorite breeds because they are very pretty and small. Heres a pic of several: http://www.berigorafarm.com.au/A%20group%20of%20Khaki%20Campbell%20ducks.jpg
No, drakes (male ducks) do not take care of the eggs once the female lays them. It is the female duck that incubates the eggs and cares for the ducklings after they hatch. Male ducks typically do not play a role in nesting or rearing the young.
Ducks reproduce sexually, with a male duck (drake) fertilizing the eggs of a female duck (hen) through copulation. A duck pair will engage in courtship displays before mating occurs, with the female then laying and incubating the fertilized eggs. Asexual reproduction, such as cloning or parthenogenesis, is not a common method of reproduction in ducks.
the ducks hatch in the spring normaly in the 2nd week
Some species of ducks, like domestic ducks, can lay eggs without the presence of a male through a process called parthenogenesis. This occurs when the egg develops without fertilization. The eggs will not be viable for hatching into ducklings, though.
Khaki Campbell ducks lay up to 340 eggs a year.

This varies from one breed to another and duck to duck, for example a White Pekin can lay between 100 to 180 eggs per year. Next example, a Khaki Campbell lays 200 to 300 eggs per year!( "A Guide to Better Hatching",Janet Stromberg author)
Yes ducks can lay eggs without mating, the won't be fertile, they need to mate for that and to have baby ducks maybe by artificial insemination? are you asking if they artificially inseminate ducks?
Most Campbells lay their first eggs when 5-7 months old and will average 250-340 eggs of superb texture and flavor per year. As per http://albc-usa.org/cpl/waterfowl/campbell.html

Yes. All of my ducks are mongrels :) mine are khaki campbell X abbacot ranger. It does depend on the breed though, as some ducks will prefer to mate with one breed over another. It is all to do with the individual duck's preference. ~BlackWolf1112
