What breed?

This is one of our girls. She’s about 24 weeks old. I’m hoping to get pictures of our other ladies and post them in this thread! I know they’re terrible pictures, but I’m hoping they’ll be good enough! Thanks in advance!

Looks like a barred rock to me.

Thanks everyone! That’s what I was thinking separate question, but about her, I noticed at lunch today that her comb is folded over and looks slightly discolored. I noticed yesterday that it was kind of leaning over a bit, but not this bad. Any suggestions on what to do? Nothing has changed in their environment. They free range for about 10 hours a day, and it’s been pretty hot and humid all summer.

Perfectly normal for hatchery type Barred Rocks, nothing you can do about it.

Okay! That’s reassuring! I’ve seen other posts on here where the chicken was sick, so I was afraid that was the case! Thank you!

Barred Rock. She appears perfectly healthy....some hens simply develop combs that flop over.
