Does this look normal?

Hi all, I noticed today that my one year old EE's comb looks very crusty and dry. Hopefully you can see it from this picture. Is this normal? I've never noticed the whitish/yellowish crust in there like that before. She is eating and acting normally....

Looks like the comb of a hen that is taking a break in her laying cycle. Is she presently laying?

She has been laying regularly. Maybe she is about to take a break?
