Poor girl… she really does look uncomfortable. I’m not an expert, but I’ve had a hen with similar feather damage before. In my case, it wasn’t mites either, just some kind of stress or maybe a nutritional issue. I added some extra protein to her feed (like scrambled eggs or mealworms) and gave her more space away from the flock, and she slowly improved.
If you’re sure it’s not pecking or parasites, maybe check her diet and stress levels. Hope she gets better soon.
