Scab on belly button of new baby chick what do I do

[Linzlu713]

My 3 day old baby chick has this rather large scab on her “ belly button area” it is obviously not normal. I am a total newbie- what should I do???

You can put some non pain reliving anti bacterial ointment on it, but it should go away in about a week or so, I had one hatch last year like this. I think it took almost two week for it to look normal. Make sure no other chicks are pecking at it.
