Spot on beak

[Hereislyss]

Hi - first year raising chickens. Here is my buff Orpington. She’s about 11 weeks old. Just noticed this spot on her beak a few days ago. She’s acting normal so not too sure about what it is. She’s the only one out of 6 with it. Any ideas of what it could be? I thought maybe she hurt her beak at some point without me noticing.

That's the most likely conclusion. Is it actually on the hard part of her beak, or on the flesh where the comb attaches to the beak?

It’s on the hard part - just a little lower from the flesh.
