So my mom bought these and even though we don’t have a mixed flock we thought it would be ok. That’s probably not such a good idea… but i was wondering if i could mix these two bags. If not could anyone suggest some brands we could buy so i can mix them?

You can mix those feeds. It actually looks like the Egg Maker is a supplement, not a complete feed. Just follow the directions to add it to the All Flock feed. The Egg Maker is good right now because everyone is molting, and the All Flock is basically layer, but it doesn't have any calcium. I honestly prefer an All Flock over a Layer. The extra calcium can be bad for roosters, and hens that aren't currently laying consistently.
Just offer OS on the side, and either feed will work.
 
You don't mention what's in your flock. If they're all laying hens/point of lay pullets, that should be fine, just mix at whatever ratio the bag suggests.

If you have any non laying birds (chicks, roosters, etc.) then it's best to not treat them with the Egg Maker as that's formulated for layers. If you must use it with non layers because you can't return it, mom says you must, etc. then just dilute down the Egg Maker with extra All Flock to cut down the calcium level.

I have 4 chickens who are laying and 3 who are pullets (a 6weeks nd 5days) nd haven’t started laying ik it’s dangerous for them to eat egg maker so i didnt put it in their feed i keep them in separate coops next to eachother. I have different feed for the both of them
