At a loss, dying chicks.

No none of them have pasty butt. That’s the closest I can get the heat lamp and it’s pretty warm in there. Not pictured is a place they can go if they get too hot because I removed the cover to take the picture. I think it may be there food from all the reading I’ve done. Did more searching while waiting for replies on this. I mistakenly got them medicated and I read something about it may be messing with their thiamine absorption?
get them unmedicated
 
Try changing the brand of feed. You can buy an $8 test bag. I had bought feed that was darker like yours and had turkey poults dying until I changed the feed. It was extremely hot and humid when mine started dying and I wonder if the feed had some unseen mold on it. The feed smelled a little like rye brand new.
