Sorry to hear of the problems she's having and the effect it is having on her carer.
Go with the oils, that will annoy the living daylights out of lice. In any condition she should be ok with oil covering many parts of her body, but the feet are easiest to treat with oil. Better to use a vege oil that you have in the kitchen and can eat.
The oils are similar effect to the ultimate nuclear blast for lice in humans, in human kids and adults, you just get cheap shampoo or conditioner, wet the hair and put on a LOT of either one. smother the hair and scalp and leave it that way for a few minutes and then wash off. 5 mins if you can stand it is perfect. More is no problem. It kills everything, adults, eggs, everything in one cheap and easy go. Oils on the lice work well, though I usually put it on the feet, I don't know if it can have any adverse effect if it was put on the whole chookie.
I've been reading that coconut oil and coconut milk are good to drink for wiping out internal parasites in chooks and humans. Cant hurt to give it a drink of what you can drink. Could help.
In future stay away from brown chickens. Most of the hybrid chickens are brown, the have different brand names in different places. They are not breeds of chickens, they are hybrids which are designed to turn nutrition into eggs rather than bodily organs and bodily functions. They do not live as long as breeds of chickens and there is nothing you can do to save them. They are good for penny pinching factories, but not suitable for caring homes because of the whole frequent dying thing that happens about every 2 years rather than 8 to 10 for breeds.
Not sure what else will help, but to wish you luck and hope things will go well. Really, I hope everything will be ok.
