Growth On Beak

[gfletch]

Hello.

One of my 4-month old White Leghorn pullets has started sprouting this growth on her beak. It's hard and seemingly made of beak material. Her beak and nostrils are otherwise properly formed, and she doesn't seem to have any problems breathing.

Has anyone else experienced these odd growths on their chickens?

Any experts here have any thoughts ... Do I have cause for concern?

Thanks,
George
