Bumblefoot and my chickens stress

IS IT THE PINE NEEDLES?? In my 10+ years with chickens I never had a single case of bumble foot. Now we live in a new place which has an awesome area of pine trees that the chicken LOVE. It's super cool in the summer and a place to perch out of the rain, etc. However, I'm now constantly battling bumble foot!! Is it the pine needles poking them when the jump down, or am I just incredibly unlucky all of a sudden. Do I need to take out all of the needles and cover with something else?? I'm going nuts here!
I'm thinking my problem is hemp bedding in the coop. Same principle! Sharp upon landing.
 
Alright! I'll get it to you! I have get it uploaded to YT somehow ☺️
It's easy if you have a YT account. Go to your own YT page, at the bottom you'll see a plus sign. It should take you to your camera roll of videos, Select the one you want and upload it. You'll have to select who can see it: public or private. If you make it private you can send me an invite at herdandhome @ gmail . com (no spaces of course.)
