Molting Hen Not Growing New Feathers

[Loving my girls]

Best way to spend Christmas!! Who doesn’t want to dig around in our precious chickens’ poop?!

Love the Golden by the way

I don't think worms do that to feathers, but check out depluming mites or feather mites. The feathers become wispy like the ones you are showing. I don't think it is molt, I think it is mites.
