I came outside to let my chickens out and saw my (very) broody cuckoo maran hen poop what looks to be bloody poop! She has been broody for 3 months! I do have a pomegranate tree in their coop that they have been eating lots of so is it just that or blood? What should I do to help her? Another hen also pooped a very watery foamy poop.

She's been broody for 3 months? That long and she's going to lose condition.
You may want to break her.

Could be pomegranate - can you take a sample of the poop to your vet for testing?

I tried to break her but she just layed down and looked sicky. Sadly the vet is not an option.
 
Is she coming off the nest at all?
How did you break her?
I have to take her off the nest and I tryed to put her in a smaller pen in the coop but separated by wire with only good and water. I put her in it again and hopefully she gets better.
 
It’s 1.5 tsp per gallon for 5 days then 1/3 tsp for 7-14 more days. Make sure not to use a metal waterer, it reacts with the corid.
Best of luck! :thumbsup
