what should i do?

this chicken is 5 months old and has not started laying yet. I noticed this a few weeks ago, but didn't think much of it. Upon further investigation, it goes the full length of her spine. We have 7 chickens total, One other many have one tiny spot that looks like this, but nothing on any of my other. We have three different needs total. Can anyone help me?

I don't know what the spot is at all maybe take it to a vet that looks at farm animals. but your chicken still has time to start laying they usually start laying between 5 to 7 months.
