I thought my chicken was molting and that's why she was so tired and just slept all the time. Today, after I realized she was still in the same spot she was yesterday morning, I picked her up. She is covered in mites. So I dusted her thoroughly with de, and when I dusted her, I saw clear and green stringy snot coming out her nose/beak. Her poop is also green/musturdy. She is losing all her feathers and new ones are coming in. Does anyone have any ideas for me? Is this normal? Does she have another disease? I am not out there a lot during the day so I don't know if she is eating and drinking, but this doesn't seem right to me even for a molt.
Update: She now won't open her eyes or move at all. Her breathing is very shallow, she weighs nothing at all, and has no fat on her. She is wrapped up in the bottom of the coop in a towel and I got water down her and yogurt, but I don't think she is going to live.
