Floppy comb on a Barred Rock

[Hollywood Chickens]

My barred rock hen is very healthy and lays very nice eggs, but her comb if floppy.
it is normal, if not then what can I do about it?

That's just her. I had one with a comb just like that. Nothing was wrong with her except a flattened, folded-looking comb.

it suits her and a combs a comb, so if u have more barred rocks you know who this one is

floppy combs are only a problem with roos! i think she is very pretty and if you need to unload her then she has a place at my house

thank you!
She is very healthy I just wanted to make sure that I was not being negligent.
I have had chickens for 1 year but they where all EEs so they didn't have much in the way of combs

I have had hens that had nice combs, then they got fowl pox and it made their combs look "unique" with sometimes a tip missing, or folded like that. Not saying yours had pox, just saying pox can make them look like that.

One of my barredrocks has a floppy comb too. It just kinda flops over to one side. My other Barred rock has a BIG comb. She looks like a rooster!
