I guess the light brahmas are great. But in the first post does that happen with their feet?

One of my hens had a broken pin feather on her foot. It didn't bother her and barely bled. Other than that, there's been no problems.
I've heard others talk about their foot feathers get dirty. That's not been my experience. Mine are raised on pasture, not dirt but their feet get no dirtier than the rest of them. Their feet feathers get wet when it rains, but dry very quickly.
