I've been mixing arrowleaf and crimson for many years, 3 lbs crimson to 1 lb arrowleaf seems to give them an equal chance. One will do better in one field, and the next field might be the opposite. Both usually do well and provide food at different times. And the arrowleaf is great cover for poults. It's high enough to provide cover from hawks, but the ground under is clean enough that they can move under it.

I have found no downside to mixing them.
