Day old chick with slightly prolapsed vent after mild pasty butt

[Cheekychook12]

My chick had a tiny bit of pasty butt however it was directly over her vent so I think pressure built up, I wiped off the poop, revealing a very tiny prolapse, she did a big poop when I sat her down
What should I do?
Tricky to get a good photo

It doesn't look too bad from the pic, though I understand it's hard to see. This happened to one of my chicks before when he was young. He was crying out a lot and trying to peck at it, but it turned out fine on its own with daily checkup

How is it reacting? Is it peeping in pain or kinda going around its own business?

This is my first year so I'm still a newbie at this. I didn't attempt to push it back it, especially because it was only slightly prolapsed. I kept him isolated from the rest until it healed up.

Here's an article I found that may help (it has a few graphic images in it)

It’s going about its business but the thing that has me worried is the tissue looks a bit dark

For a tiny chick, I would carefully keep the bum cleaned. You can run the bum under some warm water to help clean her. Pat dry, then use a hair dryer on low to finish drying her.
Don't tug or pull at any dried poop, this can tear the skin.

Apply a little coconut oil or anti-inflammatory ointment/cream to the vent to help with inflammation and to keep poop from sticking.

Do make sure she's staying warm, but not overheating. That she's drinking and eating well. I'd also provide Chick Grit (Crushed Granite).

She is acting very normal, eating and drinking, I cleaned her butt but I am worried about the dark reddish tissue

Understandable fear, it's probably irritated/inflamed so coconut oil can help soothe. Do make sure other chicks don't notice and peck at it.

The others started to notice so I had to separate her, she’s currently just sitting on my lap, I may put her back in the incubator tonight as I don’t really have a second brooder

Use a little cortisone cream on the vent. That will reduce the swelling and pain.
