No chicken minds poopy feet! If only! That's the only bad thing about feather-footed fleets. And they also tend toward dimpled foot pads, to further make poopy feet a problem. They do require diligent foot care. Also, because of their ponderous size, Brahmas and Cochins prefer low perches, often reaching their later years only after losing many of their talon nails trying to hop down from high places.
My one remaining Brahma, seven-year old Light Brahma Lady Di, has no nails left, and she remains on her perch, when she can even make it up there, until I lift her down in the morning.
They do tend to be early roosters because I believe there is a much larger chicken brain in those impressive heads of theirs.
