Half the birds I got from Rural King are dieing, they cannot walk and are tilting their head back oddly. Is this marek? What do I do?

Yesterday it was normal color, I haven’t seen it today as I just woke up and realized they were dieing and one is dead
 
I'm sorry this is happening! Did you give something like Sav-A-Chick? What are the temperatures of the warm and cool sides of the brooder?
I don’t have a brooder. Room temperature is about 70F, it’s barely breathing and will not eat scrambled eggs. Trying to feed it electrolytes water.
 
I'm pretty sure Marek's symptoms show up later. Yours are very young. I'm wondering about a vitamin deficiency. What are you feeding and did you make sure everyone was eating and drinking?
Feed chick start with chicken grit, they were fine yesterday and now one of six is dead with two the same symptoms
