Does this seem like a healthy chick starter?

Hi! I got new chicks yesterday and decided today to sit down and read the ingredients in their feed, as one of my chicks seems to be feeling a little constipated and another is starting to get a poopy butt. I’ve never been good at reading ingredients (both human food, and animal food) so I was hoping someone could let me know if this feed is okay or if I should buy a new brand.

imo, it can also be caused by 'not' feeding them chick starter or them getting chilled or in a draft ...
 
That looks fine. What brand is it? Constipation/Poopy butt is often caused by too hot a brooder.
It’s called vibrant life, it was pretty inexpensive at Walmart so that added to my hesitation. Too hot a brooder might be the situation! I noticed they panting yesterday and switched out the lamp for a cooler one and they seem much more comfortable.
