Can I give them rabbit and hamster food?

[TandN]

A friend had leftover rabbit and hamster food after her rabbit died, and gave them to me thinking I can give it to the chickens since chickens seem to eat pretty much everything. Is this safe for chickens? Not to use exclusively of course, but to include some in their regular food?
Thank you!

I’m not sure but My jumbo pekin duck likes to sneak into my rabbit pens and steal their food occasionally! She is a bit of a piggy and is definitely spoiled...

Is it treats or specifically pellets made for rabbits,?

I have ducks too.
It is pellet food.

I wouldn't use only that to feed. It's designed for herbivores not omnivores. But I have mixed it with chicken feed if I'm running low

I have rabbits in raised cages in my chicken run, so the flock gets any spilled rabbit food. It’s not their favorite, but they can eat it (as you stated, not as their only food).
