When do I change their feed?

So they are about 5-6 weeks old. When do I change their feed and any brand recommendations? preferably something I can get from online like Amazon. Right now they are eating Dumor 20% Chicken starter grower & Dumor Organic 19% starter grower. I'm not sure if the percetage makes a difference but I was running low on the 20% one and I could only find the 19%. Also when can I introduce veggies and stuff.

You don't need to switch at all if you don't want to, as long as calcium is provided on the side to meet the needs of laying birds. If you do want to use layer feed for any reason, then best to wait until they're at least as old as the recommendation on the bag, or until some of them have begun laying (which often is a number of weeks later than the age stated on the feed bags).

You can introduce veggies right now if you wish. Don't be surprised if they're reluctant to try it at first, new food can be scary! Make sure they have access to grit.

You just need to make sure that it isn't medicated after a certain age

Medicated chick feed is only for young chickens (bag should specify ages)

Aside from that, they could be on chick feed and/or all flock (flock raiser, etc.) essentially forever.

As Rosemarythyme said, calcium can be in the side. Laying birds should pick as needed. (And all the other things said in that reply)
