Ooo we have a HUGE woodchip pile for the front garden.The chickens will eat and scratch out any planned ground cover. I use thick wood mulch and bark/chip (about 4 inches) all over my run. No mud and no smell. It also breaks down to compost over time. I'm over a year with my current set up and I expect it to last another year before needing topping up.

It won't hurt their feet?

Well I may move the coops eventually so I'm not sure I'll cement it. But maybe a combo of pavers and Wood chipsWood chips are great! You could use pavers too. Some people will put cement right around the entry door to the run, if everything else is secure, to prevent predators from digging into the run, but the cement can help with the mud. Easiest is still the wood chips.
