I feed my chickens whole grains. Oats with the hull on would be fine for my chickens. I don't give them any crushed grains or commercial ground meal feed. They do need to have access to grit. I also feed them whole corn, wheat, barley and peas. I usually feed more that they can eat so that some of the grains will be missed and get a chance to sprout and maybe even grow a bit.
I think they do best with a mix of whole grains, fermented foods and sprouted grains. Of course they need plenty of fresh pasture and scratching around too!
