Chicken stock using feet. How many feet?

Layed my hands on 22 pounds of chicken feet to make some lovely
gelatinous stock.

I've got a 20 quart stock pot, and would like to come away with about 2
gallons of good rich stock. I'll be roasting the feet first, for some
extra flavor. . .does anyone know about how many feet to use?

I'd not roast them... It'll dry them out too much.

I personally like to use about 20 feet per gallon.

Hmm, that seems like a lotta feet, yards of em. My grandmothger would
add the feet to her chicken stock. She'd use a whole stewing fowl, it
only had two feet. I can't imagine making stock from jsut feet. What
is the equivalent in emu feet? Not that I know of any emus around
here, just curious... I wonder how emu stock would compare.

Well, I've made emu stock, and it used 3 emu feet per gallon. Great
results. Boiled up nicely, and give the emu feet the highest rating.
.. . .would trade again.
