Chicken Feet

Within Hoodoo practice, the chicken foot is a guardian—an old symbol of protection and reversal. It’s said to scratch away what doesn’t belong: jealousy, gossip, hexes, and ill will.

Each one is cleaned, cured, and dressed with care, then blessed to awaken its purpose. Carried with you, hung above a doorway, or set upon an altar, it stands watch—working quietly to keep your path clear and your spirit steady.

At The Root Works, every chicken foot is crafted in ritual, salt-cured and anointed by hand. Each one carries intention—to cleanse, to guard, and to hold power for whoever it protects.
