As a general guide:

A 40-lb bag will last approximately 40 days for 4 adult chickens (each eating about ¼ lb/day).

For 10 chickens, it lasts approximately 16 days.
Feed needs may vary based on breed, size, activity level, and whether they’re free-ranging, like on Eden Feeds’ site. 

Young chickens require less feed than adults.

A chick may need 1-2 ozs per day, roughly 1 lb per week, increasing gradually to 0.25 lb by 16 weeks of age.

To boost egg production, ensure hens get a balanced layer feed rich in protein and calcium, provide fresh water at all times, and keep lighting consistent (14–16 hours/day). Comfortable, clean housing and stress-free environments also help hens lay more consistently.

Whole-grain feeds are left in their natural, raw form with the grain kernels mostly intact to preserve heat-sensitive vitamins and enzymes. Whole-grain feed can get wet and be made into a mash. In contrast, pelleting or creating crumbles exposes the feed to heat, which can significantly reduce its nutritional value. Crumbles and pellets also dissolve when wet, leading to feed waste.

Fermenting chicken feed can save you money because chickens get more nutrients and waste less food. They also eat less when the feed is fermented. To ferment feed, cover it with water and leave it for about 3 days, or until it smells a little sour. Feed will ferment faster if it’s warm, so you might need to try a few times to see what works best.

~Moisten or ferment the feed before offering it, and only provide as much wet feed as your chickens can finish in a single day.

~Use feeders designed to minimize waste, like the Little Giant Plastic Dome feeder, or consider making your own low-waste feeder.”

Yes, both starter/grower and layer feeds are suitable for ducks as well.

Keep clean feed and fresh water always accessible. If using whole-grain feeds, provide grit for digestion and, for layers, offer oyster shell for extra calcium.

Keep feed in a cool, dry place, off the ground, and sealed to prevent moisture and pests. Proper storage helps maintain freshness and nutritional value.

Rocks or Grit (small pieces of granite) are added to whole grain feed to help chickens digest their food since birds do not have teeth. Chickens need it to grind up the grains in their gizzards, or else they can’t get all the nutrients from what they eat.

The grit can look big, especially in Layer feed, but that’s the size nutrition experts recommend. Sometimes you’ll see grit left at the bottom of the feeder—chickens only eat what they need. It’s a good idea always to have extra grit available so they can eat more if they want.

Chickens can be picky eaters, so with non-pelleted feed, they may select only the grains they prefer and leave the rest. For example, some flocks might favor oats over peas, or the other way around. It’s also common for them to waste a lot of the smaller feed particles, known as “fines”.
