What color should rhode island red feet be?

[JennyLeeF]

Hi ya'll,

I have 10 RIR.
9 pullets and 1 rooster.
They are all turning 3 months old in just a few days.. God do I love my little chickies.

Thir feet are brown on top. All of them. I have an image attached.

They got their first dose of dewormer 1 day ago. I was worried they were underweight at 3lbs. But from what I've read online, 3lbs for 3 month old chickens seems to be fine. But its the internet, lol so who knows. The dewormer was needed either way.

They are all active and run around the 1/2 acre yard, taking naps in the afternoon. They do dust bathe regularly but this a brown color not a dirt color. They love food and as far as I can tell eat their crumble 18% protein and love fruit and meat scraps.

Any thoughts on those tootsies? Thank you chicken people ❤ I added a pic of Jonathan just because he's so handsome.

the females should be a whitish-yellow color and the roos more to the dark yellow side. I think they are fine and very pretty!

One of my chicken's feet look just like this and I'm wondering the same thing!

Thank you so much Sourland. I was worried about that as they've gotten darker. Thank you so much for answering and easing my worries

Thank you Little Chick-y Baby Mama. I was worried they had some weird foot disease or bruising So, glad they are normal and pretty. I think our little roo is gorgeous, albeit ornery as he gets into his sexual maturity.
