Is this comb normal? Or something I need to keep an eye on?

Hello from extremely warm San Diego! I was out meandering with my chickens this morning, and noticed that this ones comb looks very different from the rest. Is this a normal comb? I'm not sure on the breed of this girl, I think she's a mix. She's acting her normal peck-at-my-toes self... follows me around, eating and drinking all normal. She's about 4 months old, maybe a little over. Just wanted to get a few other opinions from more experienced folks! What IS this?! Should I be worried, or is it something that happens? Thank you for your help!

HA! sorry that does look odd. It doesn't really look inflamed or infected to me. If she's still being her happy self it could just be her quirky comb. Does it seem tender? or to have changed any?

Hm, looks like a weird inverted pea comb on your Easter Egger. Keep an eye on it as she may be more prone to fungal infection. As long as it doesn't change shape, I think she's fine!

Thanks everyone! It definitely doesn't seem to bother her. I guess she's my "special" girl. I'll keep an eye on it as she grows and make sure it doesn't turn into Godzilla and take over the world, or get infected, hahha!

So I heard Butthead (yeah, the name kinda picked her, for obvious reasons) making some weird noises. Found her huddled between my tomato plants and the dog fence.. When she finally moved I found these babies! Woohoo! They're finally starting to put in some work!
