Yes. The actual foot of a chicken only has part of the ankle bones.

Breeders call the area the "hock" and "hock joint". In most breed the "hock joint" is where the feathers end and the bare area starts going down to the feet. This excludes Cochins and some other breeds who have feathers down to the toes.
