I add my 2 cents to foot washing rather than cutting things off. Nice warm water and a wash cloth or sponge should do the trick.
Right now I have a big stall and a big yard so my chickens' feet aren't too dirty - have shavings in the stall and grass in the yard. But I'll be moving them to their own run with small ckicken house and a smaller run, that is somewhat sloped. We have a lot of old hay...would that work? I could just keep putting it down, like deep bedding, in the yard and just pile more on top as they get it dirty. I know they will dig holes for dust baths, but that will be fine.
Cheers,
