It may well be Marek's Disease, especially if he is under a year old ( ie a cockerel not a rooster). You omitted to say how old he is??
The best you can do is treat him for wry neck/vitamin deficiency Vitamin E (gel capsules), vitamin B complex (Nutri Drench) and selenium (egg and tuna are both a good source of this trace element) and you will probably need to hold him to help him eat at least twice a day. If it is Marek's the vitamins will help support his immune system to fight it, but there is no recognised treatment for the disease.

I agree with you on treating his symptoms with Vitamin therapy.

Sadly, Poultry Nutri-Drench does not contain a sufficient source of B vitamins. It would be better to use human B-Complex vitamins (no iron) - I don't know his size, but would start with 1/2tablet of the B's daily along with 400IU Vitamin E daily. (egg/tuna are good for the Selenium)
