Light Brahma With Large Feet

[ChickensForEggs2500]

Hello!
My Light Brahma has always had large feet, but I was wondering.. why? Is this normal? Any advice/opinions are greatly appreciated. Daisy doesn't lay, is at the bottom of the pecking order, and is an all-around sweetheart! She is 8-10ish lbs.

Thanks in advance!

Lok on the bottom of her feet. Are there black round scabs? IT looks to em like she may have bumble-foot.

Thank you so much! She's been picked on all her life, ad this is the first time in about 5 years that she's grown feathers on her feet. I assume those are some of the empty feather pores (I don't know what they are called) that are filled/covered with poop/dirt. Thank you for the info, I'll definitely examine her again!

My brahmas had really big feet compared to the other "normal" chickens.

I am not concerned abbot the feathers on her feet, but look on the base of her feet, and look of reigns like this. She may also jus thane large feet. Hope this helps!

Yes, I was wondering if that was the case. When we were trying to learn more about the breeds we currently have, I noticed that in the pics of Light Brahmas, a lot of them had large feet. Thank you so much!

The toes look very swollen to me, especially her left foot.
And some raised scales.
Could be a mix of issues.
How old is she?

Daisy is 5 1/2 years old. She does have scaly leg mites that I am treating right now. Thanks!
