I'd contact my extension agent. We have pathologists available to us here through our ex agents. We had an autopsy done on one chicken who died from unknown reasons. The stupid chicken had simply over eaten grass without enough grit even though she was free ranged outside on 2 acres

As for eating too much or too little, I've never known chickens to do that.
