She's going through her juvenile molt to get her adult feathers. Chicks molt twice. Check her for lice or mites though to rule out bugs.
Yeah I check her yesterday and I don’t know if this means she doesn’t have them because I feel like if she did it would transfer to my other chickens because at night they sleep very close togther

Also is it normal to be away from the flock cause it looks like she sleeping in her coop sleeping area so is that normal?
 
No, that's not normal, can you take a pic of her poo? How is she eating and drinking?
So she eating and drinking well and it just that she stays in the coop when she can’t jump on coop roof cause molting but then after she fine and runs and walks and eat and drinks and I could not get pic of poo but this is pic Of her feathers falling off
