5 yo hen walking like Frankenstein with her feet turned in

[Virginiachickens]

She always has her butt down like that and just looks smaller now. I watch her eat throughout the day but I don't know if she is digesting OK. I will do the video next.
I gave her D-earth for the mites and will order the Calcium.
I checked her coop, it seems OK? Maybe not very full?

Poor girl!

I'd try the Calcium and see if it helps.

DE will not eliminate Mites if there's an infestation. I would get some Permethrin dust and dust her and the others. Use a Permethrin spray to treat housing. Repeat treatments every 5 days.

Thanks. Ordered the stuff, seems like the DE might already be helping some. Appreciate all your help!

Her more upright position and lowered tail is very common with a hen who has salpingitis or egg yolk peritonitis from internally laid egg masses. Here is another similar hen:
