Frizzled after molt?

Did you happen to worm her during her molt? I've been reading that safe-fguard can mess up feathers if you worm during a molt.
 
(Not sure if this is in the right forum. If not, please let me know.)
Ok, so about a year ago, I got two seramas from a local show. They were from the same hatch, same parents, all that. Both were smooth feathered. Fast forward to this fall. One of them (who I call Bean) went through a huge molt. Feathers everywhere, bare patches for weeks, etc. Her sister (Pipsqueak) when through a smaller molt, and grew in some nice feathers very quickly. After almost a month of this, Bean started to grow in all her new feathers. However, many of them (not all) had a sort of frizzled look to them? I'll post some pictures in a minute. Has anyone ever had this happen? She has showed no sign of frizzled feathers in the past. I have no idea why this might have happened. Any ideas?
Yes, also after a molt! I got her as a hatchling, along with another Buff Orpington and two Easter Eggers in March of last year. The Orpingtons continued to look quite fluffy after a small molt last fall. This year after a large molt, one looks smooth and the larger looks frizzled like your bantam (smooth neck but frizzled all below). The others are smooth as before. Egg production has returned for all four. I wondered if anyone else had this happen! I have no idea why.
