Completely lost on what to feed my chickens

[CKfarm22]

A while back i had people consistently telling me that i fed my chickens totally wrong by giving them this (i think henhouse reserve) layer feed, that looked like scratch (But isn’t called scratch) saying it would kill my chickens if i gave to much, so i gave more layer feed pellets.

Now i keep hearing that you need to stop using these layer feed pellets (Layena maybe?) because its going to make them stop laying.

Im completely lost here. It’s obviously just me and something im not understanding, can someone explain this to me?

I feed Purina All Flock but i plan on switching to Nutrena NatureWise All Flock. I agree with what @BigBlueHen53 said about them picking out what they want.

Most layer feed have calcium in it, which isn’t good if you have roosters

If you shop at tractor supply, look for either Nutrena "All flock" or Purina "Flock Raiser", they are both a higher protein feed (20%) without the added calcium. Tractor supply also sell huge 50lb bags of Manna Pro oyster shell.
I use both products and my girls do very well on it.

I can second this!
