Pale/smaller comb

[Acb33]

Hello all, one of my hens combs has turned pink/paler the last couple weeks instead of the usual red, and may have shrunk a bit too. Is this anything to worry about? She is molting a bit and we live in Minnesota so the weather has been getting colder, so hoping that may be why. I don't see any visible signs of illness or mites. Sorry the pics aren't the greatest it's the best I could do as she doesn't want to be held right now.

It's normal for combs to shrink and become less bright due to lowered hormone levels during the molt. I believe that she is okay - just molting.

Thank you for the info! First time dealing with a hard molt so I wasn't sure if that was normal or not.
