Possible Mareks

Don't let her eat the suet, it's not great for her. She's losing feathers at best due to molting, at worst due to dehydration.
Have you tried vitamin therapy? Specifically b and e vitamins, I don't know how much the poly sol has.
This is poly break down
Vitamin A (from vitamin A palmitate)250 mcg (50%)
Vitamin C50 mg (100%)
Vitamin D (from cholecalciferol)10 mcg/400 IU (100%)
Vitamin E (from vitamin E succinate)5 mg (100%)
THIAMIN (from thiamin hydrochloride)0.3 mg (100%)
RIBOFLAVIN (from riboflavin-5-phosphate sodium)0.4 mg (100%)
NIACIN (from niacinamide)4 mg NE (100%)
B6 (from pyridoxine hydrochloride)0.3 mg (100%)
B120.5 mcg (100%)

That's good but it's too low in vitamin e and in case it's vitamin deficiency.
 
Please help..I’m so devastated. Jan 16 I bought Marek VACCINATED baby chicks … fast forward 2 weeks ago, one started sneezing a lot. Then the next week she was very lethargic and had diarrhea. The 3 week, she can barely walk, is wobbly and the poops are looking normal. I think it’s Mareks. My 3 other girls seem to be doing very well. I have the sick pullet in the house …do I need to cull ALL of my girls? Or can I see how the other 3 end up doing? Again they were all vaccinated. I’ve been giving the sick one. Liquid baby vitamins, and vit rx ( I think that’s what it’s called)

They are on organic feed specific for their age.
Photos? Poop, chick, housing, feed? Thanks!

You mention organic feed, it this a loose type feed or crumbles?

Have you treated for Coccidiosis?

Feed us crumbles but she’ll only eat it if I grind it to dust. Poop has a slight green tinge. She’s in my tub. And see that leg that likes to be out in front of her.

If you have a vet that will run a fecal float to see if Coccidiosis is the problem that would be best.
Otherwise, I'd consider treating her with Corid. The poop is mucousy and she's quite ruffled. Corid liquid dose is 2tsp per gallon of water given for 5-7 days as the only source of drinking water. Omit any extra supplements or vitamins that contain B1(Thiamine) during the course of treatment.

She's sneezing, but are there any other symptoms, like wheezing, coughing, mucous, bubbles in the eyes, etc.?

She won't eat the feed unless it ground down. Do the other chicks her age have issues with eating it? Could the sneezing be due to having powdery feed? Try offering the feed as a wet mash and see if the sneezing gets better.
It's not uncommon for the need to grind/powder feed when they are tiny babies, I do that myself, but she's old enough to be able to handle feed that size. Some are pickier than others though.

Thank you…I treated her with corrid for 4 days. It didn’t seem to help. The other 3 girls are doing well. They eat very well and I don’t have to alter their food. She has a bit of a snotty nose. When she sneezes snot flies. The sneeze has been going on for weeks. I just started grinding her food 2 days ago..and the sneezing is not a lot, maybe once a day. 2 weeks ago, it’s was maybe 4/5 times a day

Does anything I sent look like Mareks? She’s not getting any worse, but she’s not getting any better..
