Weird spot on Rhode Island Red hen

[Clannad]

my rhode island red has had this weird white spot since I got her. Is it normal? (It's kinda by her ear)

Is it on both earlobes, or just one? Does the earlobe look/feel normal, like not a funky texture compared to other hen's earlobes?

I've had some Rhode Island Red hens that have had some white on their earlobes. I always assumed that it was because the hatchery had crossed in some Leghorn a few generations back to improve egg production. Your picture looks just like I remember those hens looking.

If your answer is both earlobes have white, and they don't feel or look "off", the only thing wrong is that they're white, and she's otherwise looking and acing fine, I wouldn't worry about it.

They're white on both sides. I can't touch them because she was already pretty old when I got her from the hatchery and so she is a bit skittish around people. She's way better now than she was at first though.

She's probably just fine, I wouldn't worry about it.
