Winterizing chicken run

[Alaskan]

Is your run covered from snow accumulation?
...or maybe you free range?
Snow/ice balls can form on those feathered feet.
I love Brahmas but that was a PITA here...
...they also eat more than they put out, lousy feed to egg ratio.
Mine were sweet and all named Bertha, sold them as pets to a family with young kids.

Ice balls and mud balls on the toes are a pain
