    Chickens sat all hunched up and pale

    Hi I bought 3 hens about a month ago apparently a year old and laying well. I've not had a single egg and they were covered in lice and mites which I have treated with a powder. One just sits hunched up all time. They don't look right. What could be wrong with them? Thanks
