What is happening? Infection?

This chicken has been broody for 2 weeks now. I take her out every day and she gets food and water. I did not notice anytbing off yesterday but today she is covered in like blood (and was sitting below a roasting nest, maybe pooped on) and has a raw spot and all around her eyes and comb is red. Acting normal otherwise for a broody girl.

Do we think she's getting pecked? Infection? Advise? Im just trying to clean her off right now qnd get some peroxide and neosporin on her
