Would someone look at theses feed labels and double check me?

They are from poulin starter/grower crumbles and poulin layer crumbles. Plan is to mix the 2 to achieve 18 percent protein.
Please someone check me and make sure it’s ok for my 4.5-5 week old ducklings.

The layer one has way too much calcium for ducklings, I would not use it. The chick starter will be fine if you are some niacin.

It looks like there may be niacin in it already if I'm ready right, Nicotinamide (a form of B3 aka Niacinamide)? Just whether it has enough of it is the questioning part.

I'm not an expert, so I'm not 100% but thought I'd toss it out there. Supplementing surely wouldn't hurt them to make sure they get enough.

Chicks need niacin too, just much less then ducklings. The chick starter with niacin will work

I am supplementing niacin, more than they need probably, but I am happy hav them poop out some extra as not give enough

Should I perhaps find a scratch feed to dilute the chick starter?

9mg a day is the niacin daily value if you were wondering. 20% protein will be ok.
