Daily feed, my chickens get All Flock pellets and one coffee mug (for 14 chickens) of scratch. Aside from that, most kitchen scraps (excepting onions, potatoes, avocado, chocolate...) I toss out the back door. They love bell peppers and their seeds, along with strawberry tops, and dang near anything I cut off a veggie I'm not gonna eat. The list linked below lists carrots as good for them, but my chickens don't do carrots. LOL. Sometimes meat scraps, but never processed (i.e. sausage, hot dogs, etc.) My chickens love... chicken. I also give them any eggs that come in cracked... I usually crack it, whip it and throw it in the microwave for a few min, shell and all. I make sure that when I scramble the egg, I crush up the shell pretty good.
Here's a list of what they really love, and I believe a few things that are huge no nos.
