This all happened in a matter of hours. I checked them around lunch time and noticed nothing. After dinner it got this bad. Bleeding has stopped and I have a way to separate her, but if its tooate I'd rather not allow her to suffer.

If you have the place to separate her and keep flies away from her, chicks can heal from such an injury. Coat with antibiotic ointment and continue as it heals. Good luck.
I have ointment on it, but she continues to peck at it herself. Pretty sure I can keep bugs off
 
It's not too late. Just keep her separate to keep others from pecking at the wound and keep antibiotic ointment on it as sourland said. Chicks and chickens are very resilient creatures.
