Many People use Flock Raiser for different life stages of the birds. I prefer layer feed when everyone is laying. I believe Oyster Shells are added for their calcium.

Some folks to keep their birds on a a starter/grower or other high-protein feed all their lives. If the birds are layers, they'll keep up that feed and offer oyster shell on the side for the extra calcium in it, which the birds need to make good shells.
