Ponytail palm seems to be sick. Bark his come loose from trunk. It has a new start or baby on the side. What can I do to save plant? Or can I cut new start and start a new plant?

How is the rest of the plant? Wilting, yellowing or brown leaves?
This could be a fungus or even root rot.
Make sure your watering correctly and that the soil is not soggy.
I would isolate the plant and monitor the situation.
Yes, you can propagate the 'pup' from your plant.
