So I was letting my hens free range, and I noticed she looked like she had spurs. She is 2 years old, give or take, has a wonderful rooster who is a great protector and doesn’t overrate, and lays about 5 eggs a week. She is a RIR, her name is Shiloh, and I don’t know what to do. She only has one spur, so it’s not crazy. And it’s rounded off, not like a normal spur.

I knew sometimes they got little spurs, but the one on the right concerned me bc it was so big! Thank you for the reassurance!
 
I have a 6 year old cuckoo marans hen that has her spurs trimmed whenever I trim my roosters' spurs. She is perfectly normal. She is about due for a trim. I'll try and get a picture later.
