Bumblefoot(staph infected foot wound) has nothing to do with roost size.I switched From two by twos to two by fours wide side up because some of the older hens were getting bumblefoot.
I have 15 hens of various ages. The buff Orpington prefers the floor maybe because she is too fat. The smaller breeds like Norwegian jerhon and Sicilian buttercup love to fly up high and perch on hanging milk crates. I added extra two by four sections poking out below the two doors. So everyone could have a place with plenty of room. Having the coop contained inside a big cage of hardware cloth provides safety from predators and also means I don’t have to close up the coop.
