Get her some calcium, oyster shells or egg shells

Here is an article about common egg laying problems that I highly recommend: https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/common-egg-quality-problems.65923/

It does sound like she might need more calcium. Oyster shells are a great slow-release calcium and egg shells are a fast release calcium. I like to offer a bit of both.

I don't know about egg drop syndrome, but I would suggest moving her somewhere quiet and secure where she can relax and is out of the elements and away from the other chickens. We have a big plastic tote that we have outfitted to be a chicken ICU and we can set it up in our house or sunroom to seclude any birds going through a health issue. And be sure to give her extra electrolytes and keep her hydrated.

She looks like a barred rock but different because she has muted gray and brownish and white head and neck. Can she be mixed?
