Information needed: Good All Flock choice?

[My Very First 6 Chickens]

Hello, 3 8wk old chicks moving in with 2 hens. Feeder will now get All Flock feed from Grubblyfarms. Picture shows analysis. Is this a good choice? Thank you so much for your time

Alflock feed looks just fine. I use same, but different brand. Mine has 2% calcium. I supplement their calcium needs with crushed egg shells and crushed oyster shells free-choice.
My feed is pellet form, since I have all adult chickens. (all bantams currently)
I did not see form of your feed. Small chicks usually do better with crumbles. If your feed is crumbles form, than all good. If pellets,,,, then you may need to crush some for chicks to eat easier. Observe, and decide if its needed.


WISHING YOU BEST,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

My reason for pellets, is the obvious,,,, less waste. The crumbles,, once on the ground seem to just disappear with the dust/wind/wet rain.
I only chose crumbles when I had baby chicks. Small bag, and medicated for their first few weeks of meals.
