Incubating duck and chicken eggs together?

I am considering putting a few Welsh Harlequin duck eggs in my hovabator and then a week after putting in some partridge chantecler chicken eggs. Would this work? Any input appreciated if anyone has tried this.

Thanks Killerbunny! Very exciting indeed. They are so cute. The grandkids love them and they are naming them. I think I have 4 roos and 1 hen, as 4 have strips on their backs.
