Went to collect eggs this afternoon and found this....as titled, I'm guessing this is a matter for concern. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you!

Mild concern but it is not unheard of. It looks like a hen was straining quite hard to pass her egg and she burst the blood vessel. They usually heal up pretty quickly. At roost time tonight, you can don a headlamp and go out and examine all your girls to try to find out which hen did that. Then keep an eye on her to make sure she's all right.
