well they should accept the ducks eggs, but if you have chicken eggs under her already then put ducks eggs under her the chickens will hatch in 21 days and the ducks in 28, but as soon as the chickens hatxh the hen will most likely leave the nest with the chicks and leave the ducks eggs their and they will not hatch.

you could do this if you take the chicken eggs out and put them in an incubator before they hatch and then let her hatch the ducks
