Am I missing something? Or are all these products basically the same just different labeling. Is there any reason why I can’t use the below listed Poulin Grain products as an “all flock “ product. I have Chickens, Turkeys, and Quail. The nutritional information is nearly all identical.

I did not have a label for this below but Poulin Grain calls it Turkey/Gamebird Finisher Pellet

They are not all the same. They have similarities but they are different. It's really important to read the label. What kind of birds do you have and what age? Are you feeding for meat or eggs?

Edit: I suppose I should clarify the big differences in these feeds. Look at the calcium and vitamin A levels. You will notice a VERY noticeable difference.

Poulin doesn’t list the actual Vitamin A level. But it does list Vitamin A in the ingredient. Calcium levels are also all very similar. Yes they are not exact but very close.
 
Flock Raiser also has probiotics, if you read the ingredient list.
The feeding recommendations also vary, especially regarding quail. Flock Raiser says it's okay for them after 8 weeks of age, the Nutrena doesn't list quail of any age, and there's nothing shown here about the Poulin feed.
Price and freshness matter too! Here, the Flock Raiser has mill dates within a month when I buy it, so it works for me.
I'm not feeding quail either.
