Some hens seem to molt all at once. It sounds like your hen is one of these all or nothing molting hens.They eat copious amount of grasshoppers and bugs as well as layer crumble.
There is a chicken keeping thing called a "Forced Molt". Google the term to learn some of the stressful things that will push a hen into the molt.Another thing is it's cold at night and I didn't think a chicken would molt during cold weather. It's been in the mid to low 20's here at night and the low 60's during the day.
