The sticky i posted breaks down varies feed choices, you can do chick starter but will need a niacin supplement, or a broiler starter which usually doesn't or a flock raiser/all flock which usually doesn't or a duck dedicated starter lol
Generally i prefer a multi purpose starter and then i use my chicken grower(actually pullet grower which is a 16% pellet for maintenance) and some scratch, i do toss a wee bit of whole corn but find most of mine cannot eat it lol too small in the bills.
Forgot! mine are all on the ground! so access bugs, dirt and whatever happens to crawl, fly or wiggle by.
