disoriented hen, pecked at or molting, lethargic - help!

She is probably molting at her age. She could have Mareks disease. Botulism is another disease that causes neurological symptoms. Here is a link for each disease: http://extension.unh.edu/resources/files/Resource000791_Rep813.pdf

What about the spots? That doesn't sound like molt, to me. Now I have only researched health the last year or so as I had some diseases run through my flock, so I may be wrong. But I never notice black spots on my birds faces when they molt.

Just wanted to make sure that the spots were not over looked.

Sorry if this just stirs the pot again for no reason but I would hate for chickima to lose her bird because a bit of information was missed.

Can you post a picture of the spots on her comb and face? These are pictures of fowl pox, does it look like this? https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/avian-pox-how-to-treat-your-chickens-for-avian-pox
