Swollen abdomen in in 6 month old RI Red Hen

I would not put her back in the coop until you find out what is going on for sure. You need to keep an eye on her and make sure she is eating and drinking well, that she is emptying her crop during thie night and so forth.
 
I'll keep an eye on her inside. Do you have any idea what this could be? I'd think it was pulling out feathers except that when I feel the normal chickens they feel boney. Maybe I'll soak her in a warm bath this morning. I appreciate everyone's guidance.
