UPDATE
I haven’t been home yet today, but my husband said she laid a nice clean egg. So her vent must be fine, right?
we’ve kept them separate all day and plan to continue that tonight

She’s very “hyper” but when I put her in the cat carrier she calmed down. She was going after the other hens (we have 5)
I applied ‘dakins’ solution minimally and put her back in the carrier. It seems the actual bleeding has stopped.
she’s a very uppity bird to begin with. She doesn’t do well...
So, we put her in a cat carrier, still inside the coop - not sure what else to do. We put the cape on her to hopefully deter her from pecking herself.
I'm not sure what to do and at a complete loss...and very sad...any help would be very much appreciated
