You mean, kind of like dogs do?

A single chicken produces about half the amount of poop that a medium size dog does in one day.  Also, chickens occasionally produce a smelly poop (about once or twice a week - it's called 'ceacal' and is smelly like dog poop ) but the rest of their poop is mild and not offensive.

Yes, they definitely dig up the grass.  They do this to eat all the bugs, including ticks, so some people see this as a good thing.  Also, if the chickens are contained in a run, then the spot where the run was sitting makes an excellent place for a garden the following year, because all the grass and weeds have been eaten and the ground has been tilled, and the poop has fertilized the earth.

Chickens are all around great for an eco-friendly yard.  Unlike dogs, whose poop does not make good fertilizer, and must be thrown into the city trash dump.[/quote]
