What is this on my chickens chest? if you pull on it a little, it bleeds a tiny bit at the base. I’m not sure what it is so i will leave it be until i have some idea. It looks like alive tissue on inside at base. See the pictures attached. zoomed in and out photos. about an inch or just over an inch long, bendy as well. hidden under the feathers

Hazel (chicken pictured) is mid molt and has some new feathers in the area. over the last few months, she has also been recovering from a raccoon attack to a similar area of her breast.
