This is located right before/above tail feathers. This is a jersey giant rooster. Behavior. Eating habits, etc is normal. What do i need to do to fix this? Sorry this the best pic I can get.

Can't really tell from the picture but it looks like a pecking injury or something like that? I would treat it like any wound, vetericyn spray, maybe blu-kote to discourage any pecking at it and you could put a dab of neosproren or similar. See if it clears up.
 
To me, it looks like a broken blood feather. Nothing to worry about if it is; it will heal up on its own. Wouldn't hurt to apply vetericyn spray or Blu-Kote (or similar), like DLA suggested above.
