Is 18% all flock better for my mixed flock?

[KikiDeAnime]

I'll be switching my feed very soon due to every feed store constantly being out of my all purpose feed when I need it.
The feed store I'll be buying from always has the 18% stocked at all times even when not needed so I'll be switching.

I'll just need a yes or no answer, thank you!

Will that be better for my mixed flock?

That's what I feed to everything but chicks here. Mine is a pellet so that's why I buy a chick starter when needed.

It's hard to answer just yes or no without a little more information.

Better than what?
What does your flock consist of? Chickens? Ducks, geese? Roosters? Chicks or ducklings?

I feed a 20% all flock since I have elderly non layers, a male and some young birds not yet laying.

I usually only get crumbles for when chicks are around
