Hen has not regrown feathers after a molt last summer

Hello, I hope someone can advise me on what to do for my little hen. She’s about 5 years old and had molt last summer and her feathers never came back. Shes looked like this for a year now. She doesn’t have mites, I looked her over. Is there a supplement I should give to her? She eats what the others eat. A 16% protein all-flock feed. Thank you!

I had an issue with one of my hens being bullied when I tried to introduce her to another one in my flock. She had quite a few of her feathers re-plucked, after a recent regrow from a previous bullying flock. I started adding a bit of fish oil to her food in the morning. I just bought some general fish oil capsules and punctured a hole in them to apply to her food. It seems to have worked decently well with my situation.

Thank you! I’ll try that!
