Does he not eat any real chicken food?
Corn and vegetables don't give him enough proper nutrition, there's no protein and too high carbs.
Onions are toxic to chickens
He's likely suffering for malnutrition or anemia from the onions.
You can try giving him a high protein feed that's not a layer, such as flock raiser or starter and putting him on a vitamin regime. Nutridrench or baby vitamins without iron might help

I see thank you so much I did not know that that could have been the problem! Thank you again I’ll look into buying the right food for him again, thank you.
