I was raised with the theory that chickens will eat anything that doesn't eat them first lol.
I think you just need to take your cues from your flock. Your egg production may be less than on commercial food, or it may not. But if your birds are alert, active and laying reasonably well for age and time of year, you're good to go. If you start having unthrifty birds or problems with illness, mites or lice, etc, or anything else, look to their diet first to correct it.
And keep us updated!
