Please help what is dried up around the leg

[Bettyann Almira Grace]

So it look like the Umbilical cord was still attached and then go to detached inch she was doing good but now she’s limping and I’m thinking that that umbilical cord around her leg is hurting her. Any idea’s?? Any help would be get, she was doing good for a while just not growing as fast as the others.

Can I take her to a vet

if you are careful, you should be able to remove it yourself.

clean fingernail clippers would I think be easiest.

Oh my, I will have to see I live by myself so it may be hard to keep her still, but I will try.

Yes for sure that has to come off. At some point if that does not come off, the chick will lose circulation to that foot, and/or develop a wound there

Thank you everyone, I did cut it off and put ointment on it, I put her and one other in a small pen even thought she seems a lot better she is still limping. The other is cheeping her head off not happy about not been with the others.
