Weak Leg in Adult Chicken?

I think there are a number of things that could cause stumbling and weakness. Not sure what they all are. I hope you are able to figure out the problem!
 
I had a 2 year old Black Copper Maran 2 weeks ago suddenly unable to stand. I put her down. Now I have my favorite Little Gray (1 yr. old) stumbling and weak, sitting down a lot. These didn't get vaccinated for Marek's as I got them from a friend, not a hatchery. I hope I don't have to put Little Gray down too!!! I thought Marek's attacked chicks but maybe mine is that. Not sure about yours. I read somewhere about weakness if given too much calcium. Ever hear of that?


My little gray is ok. She is molting so maybe that is it. Another one is acting weak too and she is molting. I'm feeding 18% protein. So maybe it is the molt for mine.
