Chickens will consume anything from grain to bugs, and even animal products depending on how small the pieces are. Additionally, they need a varied selection of nutrients in order to not only lay eggs but lay eggs that are nutritionally dense. 

Chick starter and grower feeds are packed with calories, especially from healthy protein - to help your chicks grow, boosting their immune systems, and improving their general health. Grower feed is essential for healthy chickens.

Layer feed has a different nutritional composition that consists of more calcium to encourage proper egg production in newly laying chickens.

Flock raiser provides a balanced nutrition when you have a combined flock of chickens. It's easier to use and still gives fantastic nutrition.

Crumble and pellets are commonly the key presentation of flock raiser food, as it's very easy for chicks and chickens alike to eat and absorb.

Shell grit has two objectives - one, it helps the gizzard break down food effectively, and two, it adds added calcium to your chicken's diet. Calcium is needed for appropriate nutrition regardless, but it's particularly vital for egg-laying chickens.

Cracked corn isn't a great feed - it's calorie-dense but not big on nutrition. Regardless, it's a nice treat for your chickens, it's rather cheap and in a pinch, it can be used to feed your chickens if you've got nothing else accessible.
