You can trim that. Search for "dubbing" videos.

You might consider dubbing her comb. It is common to do that in some breeds for showing. There have been quite a few birds whose combs have grown oddly or have caused severe problems. I would consider it if it really bothers her. Since I don’t know much about dubbing, here is some reading:

She's a happy chicken and doesn't have any real problems other trying to drink from a kiddy pool lol. When they are free ranging she has no troubles finding bugs and such. I dont think dubbing is necessary at this point. Not until she starts showing some real distress.

I wouldn’t do it either if she is fine with the comb in her eyes, and gets around well. It is never good to do something so drastic if it is unnecessary. I just thought you were looking for suggestions because she was having a hard time.

It's like cutting hair, sorta.
Just get someone to hold her, a sharp pair of heavy duty scissors and snip going from front to back. Make sure to have some flour to dab on if she bleeds a little. Next day she'll have a scab there and in a week she'll be prancing around with her healed comb and newfound vision!
You can do it!

There's nothing drastic about it.

Except to you.

Lots of show birds get docked or dubbed every day.
After a few days, she'll enjoy not having a comb that roosters can drag her around by while getting get a little.

I know what it entails. Read posts above. It's not necessary right now.
