    Food Question. Advice Please

    We have chickens, runner ducks and guineas that all free range during the day. I cant keep the chickens out of the duck food and the ducks out of the chicken food. (The guineas were raised with the ducks, so they think they are ducks) Is there a food that is okay for all them? Thanks in advance.
