Baby Chick Featherless Bottom/Odd Anus

[Wyorp Rock]

The chick has lost it's down (fuzz) likely due to picking or overcrowding.
All of the chicks will start to lose their down and feather in, so I would expect to see her begin to feather in, in the coming weeks.

Do watch the vent and the scab to make sure that there's no redness or irritation.
See that she's eating/drinking.

Hello! new to this forum just wanted to see if i can get some help!! will attach photos below

Baby chick is always active and eating no other problems with him/her

anybody know what this is?

Looks like it's been pecked. I had something similar in a small chick, clearly the runt when I integrated two groups of chicks (older ones were about 2 weeks older). It along with his three age-mates would huddle in the corner climbing to get away from a ruthless slightly older chick (7 or 8 weeks old and already mean!). Anywho, as they would huddle in the corner of the brooder, it would expose it's little behind and surely it was getting pecked. Interestingly, it subsequently had a delay in growing its tail feathers that persisted till it was much older. Still turned out beautiful (pic below is of it and it's same-age brother for comparison of what I perceived to be the impact of it's bottom being pecked raw as a couple week old chick). Unfortunately though, it was a he and had not space for roosters.
