Are these mites?

[AMURPHY227]

Hello!
I have a lethargic chicken and I went out to get her a while ago to bring inside to assess her. Her keel bone is protruding, she hasn’t eaten or drank since I’ve had her for about an hour, and not sure if she ate or drank anything since I woke them up.
I noticed yesterday her poop was bright green, and last night she stayed laying on the floor of the run when everyone else went to the coop. She only went up to her spot to get away from me checking her messy butt.
I was thinking vent gleet, but saw these little bugs when I was videoing her. I haven’t seen any clusters around any feathers.

Never dealt with mites or lice, so is it best to treat with permethrin or Elector PSP? Guessing I will need the dust since they’re on her head.
Here is a link to the fb post, only way i can get a video on here.

I'd dust her with Permethrin if you have it.

Photos of her poop?
When was her last egg?

I'd work on her drinking, get her hydrated, then offer some food.

I lost her shortly after this post yesterday.
Her last egg was on 6/3.
I felt for a bound egg when I brought her in, felt her crop which was empty, so I was just thinking maybe bad case of vent gleet.

I knew it wasn’t worms bc I just gave them wormer last week for roundworms.

When I had her inside at first she was wheezing a little and she sneezed a few times.
I offered her mash and meal worms, she wanted none- which is very very unlike her. Got her water with rooster booster and dipped her beak in but she only drank what got on her beak.
I’m beating myself up now for not acting faster syringe feeding her electrolytes and vitamins.

I don’t think the mites killed her overnight- which by the way I did not see with my naked eye, and I use my naked eye to check them for those a couple of times a week.
I feel like she had something else going on, her skin was yellowish when I plucked some of her feathers yesterday evening (i wanted some feathers to make a wreath, she was a gorgeous black green/blue sheen color), but that was probably bc she had been deceased for about an hour by then.
Only way to know is to bring her to LSU for necropsy but I won’t do that unless another goes down like that.

I’m spending my day treating 16 chickens one by one and removing all roosts and nest boxes and torching them, then dusting their run and bedding with permethrin.

mites are literally my worst nightmare!

I agree with you; it sounds like she had something else going on.
