This morning when I went out to my coop everybody was fine. Then when u came out for chores I found one of my hens have a bloody comb some fresh blood and some dried, it’s all on my feeder. She is on the top of the pecking order. What happened. Help me. What do I do

She'll be fine.
Comb wounds bleed like all get out, they shake their heads and it goes all over-looks like a murder scene, but they heal up fast.
 
It can be very scary when it happens but I think she'll be alright. Even if they are on top of the pecking order, some hens or roosters can still get curious. If you want you can gently clean it up with a damp napkin. Just keep an eye on her to make sure she is not getting picked on badly since the other chickens might be curious about the blood.
